We’ve all done it—noticed a hazard and said nothing. Maybe we were tired, busy, or didn’t want to rock the boat. But every time we look the other way, we send a message: “This is okay.” And over time, those small choices shape a culture where risk becomes routine.

In this episode, we dig into the hidden cost of silence in safety—broken trust, missed warnings, and the human toll behind preventable incidents. You’ll hear why leadership means being the first to care out loud, why safety is more than policy, and how a single moment of awareness can make all the difference.

This isn’t about blame—it’s about noticing, speaking up, and creating a culture where everyone gets to go home.
