We have a bit of faith in our teams to do the right thing, we also know no matter what we put in place there will always be those who “never used to have these when I was young”…?
We have spot site visits and audits also, not to catch people out like some people think, but to make sure what we actually develop in the office works in the field. It is a slow process but we are quietly getting there.
We can also have a hold point on our digitized Risk Mentor risk assessment that means staff must input a reading/photo before they can continue, so they can make it up if they want but why would you for the sake of 1 minute.
There are also those who will use it everywhere they go so they don’t have to work…?
You can’t win so we just try to cater to the majority not the minority, they will get sorted in time one way or another ?
