"A bad process will beat a good person every time, and about 85% of the variability that we have is due to the processes and not the people." Blake Baldwin That’s how strongly Blake Baldwin feels about the urgent need to update safety processes and de-risk the working environment. This week on The Canary Report: Safety & Risk Management , host Michael Zalle welcomes Blake to explore how smart system and process design can engineer risk out of daily operations. From forklift screen safeguards to food temperature monitoring, Blake shows how small process changes create big impacts. Together, they unpack why safety must move beyond training to become a proactive, data-driven strategy that protects people while enhancing performance.
