Managing Risk Through Effective Supervision I n the fall of 2023, PEP presented a free training series, “Managing Risk Through Effective Supervision.” This opportunity was designed for first-line supervisors and their roles in creating a culture of safety. Additional session topics included the positive impact of effective communication and the importance of motivating your team through constructive leadership while also being a productive manager. Sarah Curtis, PEP’s Loss Control Training Consultant, led these sessions in cities across the state to give members equal access to this in-person event. Nearly 400 employees attended these training events. “We were excited to offer this training for supervisors as it is every employee’s duty to create a safety culture in the workplace,” Curtis said. “By training the first-line supervisors on how to effectively utilize their skills, we can mitigate risks and prevent accidents.”
