With Chain of Responsibility legislation changing this October, ensuring safety at every stage of your supply chain is more important than ever. The changes mean that if a safety breach occurs at any point in the supply chain, regardless of whether it was a result of your direct action, you can be held liable β safety is everyones responsibility.
Now while itβs easy to take responsibility for yourself, the issue is; how do you make sure the other people in your supply chain follow safe practices?
The answer β communication.
Simple enough to say, but significantly harder to put into practice.
Strong communication has a number of benefits including streamlining operations, increasing efficiency, improving planning, creating better relationships with those in your supply chain, and decreasing safety risks.
