Event details
Safety Leaders have made up their minds about AI. Two-thirds now use it every week in their own work, yet just 3% run it at scale in their safety processes. That gap between personal confidence and usage, and organisational reality is the story of 2026.
What’s more, is functions such as HR, Finance and Legal are moving faster. Are Safety Leaders at risk of being left behind if they don’t engage now?
In this session, Duncan Davies, along with a guest speaker, unpack the findings of the Safety Leadership & AI Readiness Benchmark - the first study of its kind, drawn from over 100 senior Safety Leaders across the globe. You'll see exactly where the profession stands across digital maturity, AI readiness and data capability, what separates the leaders from the rest, and what you can do next to go from willing to genuinely ready.
Whether you're piloting your first AI tool or still deciding where to begin, you'll leave with evidence-based insights and a picture of what "good" looks like
All attendees will receive a CPD certificate.
