ABSTRACT

Money is the universal language; corporate costs must be communicated to all organizational players to relay the magnitude of accidental losses. Profitoriented organizations consider Return on Investment (ROI) in nearly every activity. Notwithstanding a leader's moral responsibility to protect lives, guard assets, and preserve the environment (a card well played by prominent safetyminded organizations), safety is a financial win-win proposition well worth the expended resources. Leaders must ensure their organizations are safe enough to achieve the mission.
