Why the Safety Culture Ladder is more than a certificate
Imagine: as an organisation, you don't just want to comply with the rules, but create a culture where safety is taken for granted. A culture in which employees
Awareness of health and safety at work
The Safety Culture Ladder (SCL) is the tool to measure safety awareness in organisations. The higher your company ranks on the ladder, the better its safety awareness. Suitable for every type of organisation and size who take safety seriously. Safety must be reflected in culture, attitude and behaviour on a daily basis. SCL encourages companies and their suppliers to consciously work safely and healthily.
After the successful SCL event last year, we are organising another SCL event this year on 20 November. We will combine the day with the SCL Auditors' Day.
Event Safety Culture Ladder (SCL) 2025. Be inspired by, among others, Mr Ahmed Aboutaleb, former mayor of Rotterdam and attend practical workshops. Discover how to really strengthen safety and healthy working within your organisation.
SCL day exclusively for auditors. A day full of practical experiences, peer review and in-depth discussions on the application and assessment of the Safety Culture Ladder.
Per 1 June 2025 introduce renewed and accessible products that support organisations in improving their safety and health culture in an even more effective way. With this innovation, we make the Safety Culture Ladder more applicable to small organisations.
Whether you are an auditor playing a role in assessment, looking to assess your own organisation or an organisation wanting to understand what the Safety Culture Ladder is all about, there is always a suitable training course.

For organisations: introductory and in-depth training courses
"The SCL helps to start the conversation and ask yourself together, for example, why someone is not wearing that helmet at a certain time when it is the rule. That way you get much more awareness from your employee. Together, we take safety to the next level."
"Using the SCL increased and changed the energy on the subject of safety. Once it becomes clear that SCL is about behaviour and attitude rather than procedures, rules or documents, a completely different view of safety emerges. That was nice to see with us too."
“Really, the SCL was the missing link we needed to add to hard agreements and rules to influence people’s attitudes and behaviour and improve safety.”
If you would like to obtain an SCL certificate or statement for your organisation, make sure you work through every step of the step-by-step plan. It describes everything you need to do: step-by-step. Depending on the product you are interested in, the first step could be a self-assessment. If it is, we have a handy SAQ webtool that you can use for this purpose.
