Health and Safety

The Ripple Effect and Its Reach Across Our Lives

Central to Courageous Safety Leadership is the ripple effect: how an event or action can create ripples of consequences—far-reaching and sometimes multiplying—across our lives, the lives of our families and the lives of our co-workers.

In December 2016, a workplace incident at Trail Operations set in motion ripples across Ironworker Adam Nugent’s life.

Watch Adam’s story and hear how Teck has learned from it to create a safer workplace.
