Episode 221: The ISF and Moving Beyond Compliance
Description
Jennifer McNelly, CAE, CEO of the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP), discusses the Intersociety Forum (ISF) and a recent report calling for a shift in how safety is embedded in business strategy. Representing nearly 30 safety and health organizations, the ISF advocates moving beyond legal compliance toward risk-based, proactive safety management systems.
Jennifer explores why compliance alone hasn’t lowered fatality rates and how industry consensus standards, predictive data insights, and integrated safety strategies can drive better outcomes -- not just for workers, but for business performance. She also highlights why now is the time for unity and how safety professionals can become influential change agents within their organizations.
This conversation is packed with actionable insights for safety leaders looking to align safety and strategic value -- and to help shape the future of workplace protection.
