In this episode of The Big Safety Short, host Rob discusses the crucial "aha moment" in construction safety when everything comes together to reveal the true state of workplace safety. Joining Rob is Justin Cote, Managing Partner and President of Lynnwood Roofing, who shares his experiences and insights. Justin explains how his company, despite having strong safety protocols and high scores on audits, discovered through a social technical evaluation that they were relying on luck to avoid serious accidents. This realization, or "aha moment," highlighted the gap between perceived safety performance and actual on-site risks. Tune in to learn how innovative strategies and honest evaluation can lead to safer practices in high-risk industries!

Much like Michael Burry in the Big Short, Intactix is the only company that has gone to the ground floor to examine the data and discover why organizations are continually ‘blindsided’ by their serious incidents.
The harsh reality, the data companies are relying on to manage risk is invalid, inaccurate, and worthless. We can show why serious incidents like BP’s Deep-Water Horizon can go 7 years without a recordable, then BOOM. Or why great safety-first organizations can have the highest safety spend and most safety professionals in industry and, the most fatalities. They are literally running blind to their risk. Safety data has become a house of cards perpetuated by classic garbage in, garbage out that is being further perpetuated by senior leaders of the world's largest organizations that are relying on bad data and being guided by a false sense of assurance that it won't happen to me. The Big Safety Short is here to tell the TRUTH about safety and LISTEN and be the VOICE of the front-lines to do safety differently.
