On average 50% more injuries occur with undertrained workers each year. Unqualified workers, both employees and third-party contractors, present serious legal ramifications, and the risks are only increasing. When contractors are subbing out work last minute due to a worker shortage or other scenario, it can be all too easy for an unqualified worker to end up at your jobsite.

Join Laurie Knape as she shares real-life stories and lessons learned from her years of experience in the safety space. She’ll walk you through a virtual worksite tour where she’ll test your knowledge on where risks may be hiding.

In this session you’ll learn how to:

  • Control risk at the site level
  • Identify hidden risk among contractors
  • Manage the skills, competency, and training across sites and projects
