Episode 49 - Using Integrity Cards to Save Lives with Guest David Hatch

You may remember our guest David Hatch, from Episode 39, when he spoke to our listeners about using bow ties to manage risk. Today, David, a process safety expert and entrepreneur, is back to talk with Rob about the Integrity Cards that he has developed. In his process safety career, David had not seen a reduction in accidents and wondered to himself if maybe those in hazardous industries weren't focusing on the right things. He saw an opportunity to condense process safety knowledge into an accessible and familiar version - a pack of cards, where each card represented a different loss of containment, and thus the Integrity Cards were born. These Integrity Cards are meant to be used in a structured way to inform those on the front line of legitimate hazards that they face, and can be used in PHAs, toolbox talks, management meetings, and more. In this episode, David covers his inspiration for creating the cards, shares suggestions for using the cards, talks about how QR codes are expanding the knowledge each card can convey, shares how his cards can be used electronically, and touches on other opportunities outside the world of process safety in which customized decks can be utilized.  To learn more, visit https://integrity.cards/ or find David Hatch on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/dh04tch/.
