Leading Edge – Volume 19 – Safety and Security Needs
Focus on Healthy Workplaces-Safety and Security Needs
- Organizations, and individual leaders have an obligation to meet the basic second tier need for safety and security.
- The bulk of this need can be satisfied with team members by demonstrating financial viability and sharing key information related to that strength.
- Telling and sharing the company history will also aid in meeting this need set.
- Key company policies, including anti-harassment, bullying and hostile working environment elimination, must be enforced fairly and equitably.
- Communicate any situation in which the company or organization may appear in the news or social media in a less than favorable manner. Never surprise team members with reading bad news elsewhere.
