7 Things Everyone Can Learn from Near-Death Experiences (Room 25 AB)

21 Sep 22
1:00 PM - 2:00 PM

Tracks: Hazard Identification & Prioritization

Regardless of the industry they work in, people’s perception of risk changes the more they’re exposed to it. It often takes a near-death experience to break the “it won’t happen to me” syndrome. This session will demonstrate that you don’t need to wait for your own near-death experience to learn how to maintain situational awareness. Joe Tantarelli will talk about the day he almost died – and the personal safety skills he wished he’d known back then. You’ll learn critical supervisor skills to adapt safety training at any site, not just the classroom.
