The 2012 roster of nine individuals represents national and international organizations of all sizes from a wide variety of industries. The NSC chose these leaders based on their understanding of the value of safety, and their commitment to work with employees at all levels to ensure safety remains everyone’s focus and responsibility. The NSC determined that four common elements exist among all of the organizations recognized: strong executive leadership and active employee engagement, implementation of safety management systems, continuous reduction of risk, and constant measurement of safety performance. Profiles of the CEOs Who Get It are featured in the February 2012 issue of Safety+Health magazine, as well as at the NSC website.
