Sentis Make a safety culture change for the better through assessments, training, coaching and consulting.

Safety isn't about protecting you from something, but for something...

Offering safety culture assessments, training, coaching and consulting, Sentis helps organisations to break through the safety plateau and achieve positive safety culture change. As experts in applied psychology and neuroscience, we make safety personal and equip employees with the knowledge, skills and motivation to make safer choices, each and every day. This leads to safer, more engaged workplaces, as well as increased productivity, leadership capability and transformational, sustainable safety culture change. Since the introduction of our pioneering ZIP program in 2003, Sentis has empowered more than 400 companies and 200,000 individuals to think differently about safety.

Some people have seen a lot of Sentis' story over the years. Eagan Barnett has seen nearly all of it🎉

Eagan joined us 20 years ago, and since then he's facilitated programs around the world, and worked side by side with many of our clients to make a real difference. Today, you may know him as our Regional Manager for WA and Head of Products.

Ask anyone about Eagan (or Eags as he's affectionately known), and the first thing they mention won't be a job title. It’ll be that he goes above and beyond for our clients, that he’s a whole lot of fun to work with and, most likely, his strong GIF game.

‘Eagan is an exceptional listener with a rare knack for understanding what an organisation really needs. He then designs something that truly engages its people. Thank you for 20 wonderful years, Eags.’
— Darren Kennedy, CEO at Sentis

Happy Sentisversary, Eags! Here's to many more.

The person you report to can be the difference between work that wears you down and work that builds you up.

Under poor leadership, 43.6% of people say work harms their wellbeing. Under good leadership, 46.6% say it helps.

Behind those ratings are everyday things like being recognised, seeing your leader around and feeling safe to speak up.

Who’s helping your frontline leaders get those right?

Week 2 of National Safe Work Month asks what WHS protects.

The official answer is health, both physical and psychological. Ask a crew member at smoko, though, and you might hear something more specific. A daughter’s netball grand final. A fishing trip that’s been on the calendar since winter. A walk with the dog after knock-off.

At Sentis we call these your Personal Big5, or PB5: the people, places and experiences you care about most. Once people make that link, safety stops feeling like a cost. Every safe choice today buys more time with the things that matter later.

Everyone in our team has written theirs down. Here's an example from one of our Partnership Development Managers, Samantha Johnson. Now it's your turn.

Write down your PB5, then put the list somewhere you’ll see it before work. Your phone lock screen, the dash of the ute or the inside of your locker.

What WHS protects has names, places and dates.

Join Dr Amy Hawkes, Head of Psychology, and Tia Armit, Principal Consultant and Organisational Psychologist, for a deep dive into what the data says now.

Think about the best leader you've worked with on site. What did they do that made safety feel like part of the job?

Odds are it came down to a handful of everyday behaviours: how they talked about where the team was heading, how they backed people up and how they noticed the good stuff.

Our research identifies eight key competencies that define effective safety leadership. Most leaders have a few that come naturally and a couple that take more effort.

So which ones do leaders in your industry tend to nail, and where's the room to grow? We dug into it in The State of Safety Leadership, Revisited: https://eu1.hubs.ly/H0yXk360

Some of the best safety lessons end up at the dinner table.

After our programs, people often tell us they wish they'd learned this 20 years ago, or that they're now using it with their kids at home.

That's why this year's National Safe Work Month theme, Safe for Life, resonates with us. The way we think, notice and look out for each other doesn't stay at work, and neither does the stress and fatigue.

That's what Positive Safety is about: helping people think clearly, feel well and go home to what matters.

What does "safe for life" look like in your workplace?

"All effective controls must function, but not all functioning controls are effective."

Join Amy Hawkes, Head of Psychology at Sentis, with special guests Warren Smith and Alex Fernando, Directors at Incident Analytics, as they unpack the whitepaper's findings and explore how to build critical controls that stay reliable under real-world pressure.

Nine years on, teams still rate their leader's care first and recognition last.

We revisited our 2017 publication, The State of Safety Leadership, with nearly three times the data. That's 23,595 responses across eleven industries and six regions. Inside, we unpack five key findings and what they mean for safety leadership from here.

Our revisited report is out now. See what nine years of data says about safety leadership, and where your industry sits.
