"SAY NO, SAY YES" CAMPAIGN

To bring about improvements in health and safety performance the need is for EVERYONE to work towards a set of common goals.

The need is to develop a genuine management/workforce partnership based on trust, respect, co-operation and joint problem solving.

In November 2009, as part of a joint initiative between CPI and Unite the Union, to improve health and safety at all levels in the paper industry, the ‘Say No, Say Yes’ campaign was launched. Fundamentally the campaign, lays down a set of common goals for managers and employees that involve Saying No to taking risks, but Saying Yes to health and safety.
