Worksite Culture Training - Improve talent acquisition, retention and productivity!

The Builders Code establishes a standard code of conduct for workers in the construction industry in BC!   It defines an ‘Acceptable Worksite’ as the starting point for reducing risk and ensuring a safe and productive environment for all workers by expanding the definition of safety to include psychological safety.  

Creating an Acceptable Workplace Culture makes sense when we understand the impact of unacceptable behaviour. It’s important to have a clear grasp of how physical safety, productivity, retention, individual mindset, attitude, teamwork and time management are affected when workplace culture is (or isn’t) functioning to its highest potential. Through the “Psychological Safety in the Workplace” training course, individuals discover how they can advocate for themselves in the workplace and contribute to a respectful and supportive work environment.

With Builders Code Worksite Culture Training, companies learn how to foster an environment where everyone can feel safe, included and valued as a keystone to individual and business success.

  • Defining psychological safety.
