Marieta underscores the fundamental human right to safety at work and emphasises the importance of transparency and collaboration between organisations to enhance safety standards.
Her journey from food engineering to a leadership role in health and safety reveals her passion for systematic processes and people-centred approaches. Through heartfelt storytelling and a deep understanding of the human elements involved in safety, Marieta advocates for engaging people genuinely to foster a culture of safety that extends beyond compliance to touch hearts and minds.
Marieta discusses the critical role of leadership in embedding safety within organisational culture, emphasising that safety cannot be isolated but must be intertwined with productivity, quality, and overall operational efficiency. She elaborates on the importance of modernising safety practices through technology and digitalisation to attract younger generations and streamline safety processes. Moreover, Marieta's reflections on involving and listening to employees highlight a collaborative effort to identify and address safety concerns, making safety a shared responsibility.
