A common requirement to attain either world-class lean or world-class safety is the ongoing engagement of the workforce.

Discover a different path to lean success – a safe path. By using some of the common tools in a lean thinker’s toolbox and focusing on safety instead of cycle time, learn how to build an understanding and the acceptance of lean while improving safety.
