Safety game supports & enhances world class safety culture at VTTI
The terminal safety game can facilitate a simulation exercise for single actors or groups. In the game, safety improvement is the key to success. Players must make balanced decisions to invest in “hardware – safety systems, software – better procedures/training and mindware –safety leadership & safety culture”. Like in real life there is no single solution for success while the odds can be against the participant. According to VTTI the Risk Control Strategy Game will support the organization to operate in respect of word class safety standards.
