- Frantz Belot: Have You Created a System That Causes Human Error and Accidents? (Intermediate Track)
- Human error is often misinterpreted as solely a human issue. However, it predominantly arises from system flaws within organizations. We inadvertently create systems that tolerate poor processes for the sake of rewarding outcomes, leading to constraints and errors. Understanding this dynamic is crucial to prevent and mitigate human error. By investigating the true causes of errors instead of blaming individuals, organizations can identify systemic factors and prevent future errors. Empowering employees, fostering mutual coordination, and cultivating a learning culture are essential steps. Through video-based microlearning and active employee engagement, organizations can keep employees save, improve efficiency and increase overall productivity.In this session we will explore the intricate relationship between human error and systems, and discover strategies to prevent human error, keep employees safer, create a learning organization and achieve optimal business outcomes.
- Kathleen Dobson: Fairy Tales, Fables, and Falls (Beginner Track)
- This session will take examples from common fairy tales and childhood fables to address issues of falls, falling objects and fall protection.Did the stories we heard as children influence our risk tolerance to fall exposures? Kathi will lead the audience through some common scenarios related to fall potentials and discuss the applicable standards and what could have been done to prevent some tragic storyline outcomes.
- Anuja Patil & Corey Rimmer: Motion is Money – Improving Work Efficiency & Productivity Integrating Lean Principles (Intermediate Track)
- Inefficient processes in the workplace can have detrimental effects, including increased task times, bottlenecks, duplicated efforts, and a higher risk of overexertion injuries. These factors directly impact project completion timing, material costs, and labor requirements. To address these challenges, CNA’s Motion is Money® presents strategies and solutions aimed at improving workers’ productivity and reducing risk factors.
Motion is Money® adopts a straightforward approach to identify and improve inefficient processes. The methodology begins by recognizing and observing wasted motions within the organization’s operations. These wasted or non-value-added motions are then quantified and annualized to emphasize their cost to the organization.Based on the identification of inefficient steps, solutions are developed to optimize work tasks and enhance worker productivity. This approach enables organizations to create solutions that not only streamline processes but also make them safer and more efficient. Consequently, this leads to a reduction in fatigue, improved productivity, increased worker satisfaction, and greater retention of skilled labor.
This conference session aims to provide an in-depth exploration of the Motion is Money® approach, highlighting its key objectives, methodology, and outcomes. Attendees will gain insights into how to identify inefficient processes, quantify their impact, and develop effective solutions. The session will feature real-life case studies and practical examples to illustrate the successful implementation of Motion is Money® in various industries.

- Kirsten Chaney: Whole Person Health Enhancement of Workplace Safety (Beginner Track)
- This presentation will be centralized around how HR & safety representatives can advocate and encourage whole health principles and lifestyles for workers to improve workplace safety on and off active work sites.This presentation will be in a workshop format with some group discussion and some interactive poll/survey questions to maintain engagement throughout the presentation. Attendees should expect to discuss what “whole health’ means, how poor wellness culture impacts workplace safety, and leave with resources for implementing next steps to take at their own sites.
