Here is a screenshot of our website logo and our company slogan. Looking back on our 14 years of safety and health consulting, I can actually see how our own professional development, attitudes, practice, and recommendations to clients have moved across an arc – from a focus upon regulatory compliance to excellence as the motivation.
There are so many stories and examples of our successful work with clients. See our client list for examples of those who have moved from worrying about OSHA compliance and are now meeting their business goals while incorporating excellence in safety and health.
But, our stories of failures are also illustrative. Every once in a while we meet with company or agency managers who “want safety” and a proposal from us to “do some work.” At Circle Safety, we try to accommodate all sizes of organizations, work cultures, management styles, and budgets. We want to help but negotiations sometimes fail when management just isn’t ready to dedicate the time and resources or the leadership! One of the early clues that we may not be able to help is reflected in the language being used – examples of which I just pointed out.
We, too, are a business; we seek new clients and we will usually work with anyone who needs help. Still, what we enjoy most is working with those who already envision moving toward Excellence.
