Do you have any of the following challenges?

Managing a diverse organisation today can be a complex task with many important personnel issues to address. Whether viewed through the lense of race, ethnicity, ability, gender, sexual orientation, neurodiversity, or other key individual characteristics, diversity can strengthen an organisation, but steps need to be taken to ensure that ED&I policies, practices and mindsets are embedded into the business.

This is where iCare from COMET can help.

Inspiring an ED&I culture

In a rapidly changing world, business leadership is evolving, and the qualities that define the most effective leaders are undergoing a deep transformation. Today, being an inclusive leader is not just a desirable trait; it’s a necessity.

Characterised by equity, empathy, compassion and understanding, inclusive leadership is the cornerstone of creating diverse, harmonious work environments where every voice is valued.

However, creating a culture of mutual respect within any workforce is a continuing challenge. It is one that needs to be managed effectively to ensure that Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (ED&I) practices are fully embedded into decision-making to deliver the best outcomes for everyone.
 
Solution: iCare is our programme of personal development designed to ensure Equity, Diversity & Inclusion best practices are at the heart of your business. The iCare programme helps develop understanding and skills in key topics using case study scenarios to cover typical situations that are made relevant to three key audiences in the business: individual employees, team leaders and business leaders. The aim is to help everyone in your business understand and apply Equity, Diversity & Inclusion in their daily work.

Building a comprehensive ED&I culture

In a rapidly changing field, it can be difficult for managers and team leaders to keep up-to date with the needs of the workforce in terms of ensuring equity for all.
 
Solution: As well as the nine protected characteristics that are common across ED&I training programmes, iCare from COMET covers other attributes including neurodiversity and socio-economic background.  The workshop programme comprises a range of practical tools, great communication devices and thought-provoking learning that can all be tailored to the specific needs of your organisation. The aim is to provide the tools and insights that go beyond standard ED&I training, helping your organisation address a broader range of diversity needs.

Ensuring everyone understands their ED&I responsibilities

It can be a challenge to ensure that all employees understand their personal responsibilities for promoting equality and tackling discrimination. They need to understand their own unconscious biases and eliminate any discriminatory behaviours if they’re to help develop strong, productive and creative team relationships.
 
Solution: The iCare from COMET programme comprises four workshops – Get It, Set It, Feel It and Live It – that help your employees to define what ED&I means for them, to recognise their personal behaviours and unconscious biases, to improve communication, and to use their emotional intelligence and build resilience in the ED&I context. With a focus on key subjects such as self-awareness, emotional intelligence, empathy, and thoughtful decision-making, iCare will help you to promote conscious inclusion by actively engaging your workforce in the skills required to listen and learn.

Helped us reduce first aid cases by 29%

"When we adopted COMET, we were looking for a root cause analysis tool that would help us identify underlying causes before they lead to incidents. Since adopting the tool, COMET has helped us reduce first aid cases by 29% in the last year, contributing to Corning’s best-ever safety record in 2022.On top of this, the support from the COMET team cannot be underestimated – they are always on-hand to resolve any issues in a timely and efficient manner. I would highly recommend COMET and the STC INSISO team to anyone looking for an audit and investigation tool."

Guillermo Castillo, Global EHS Leader – OCS Division at Corning Inc.

COMET helped us understand the systemic root causes

"The main value to LR of adopting COMET is the newfound organisational leadership education and enlightenment as to the reasons behind incident types, particularly  those which hurt us most in terms of frequency. A recent example was repeat microsleep incidents affecting our surveyors. COMET helped us understand the systemic root causes and gave the Board sufficient confidence to invest over £2 million in a preventive action programme which is already bearing fruit in terms of this type of incident reduction."

James Pomeroy,
Group Director HSEQ at Lloyds Register

We’re maximising its value across the business

"Viridor is a relatively recent adopter of the COMET RootApp tool but is already beginning to really reap the rewards of a first class investigation system.
We’re maximising its value across the business through consistency of approach and ensuring we really do get to the root cause of our incidents so we can set the right actions to prevent recurrence.

The COMET team has been hugely helpful and supportive in getting this new process implemented."

Richard Robinson,
Head of SHQS at Viridor

Probably the best root cause analysis process and toolkit

"Probably the best root cause analysis process and toolkit. But beyond enabling us to adequately identify root causes, COMET also allows us to track trends using the root cause codes to help address systemic opportunities in our management system."

Bertrand Piredda, Director of HSES Cummins Power Systems

Feels more like a partnership

"Borr Drilling adopted COMET across the business in 2017/2018 and since then our relationship and trust with the STC INSISO COMET team has grown immensely.

Any issues are quickly resolved or addressed and a feature of the relationship I enjoy most is that it feels more like a partnership than that of a more traditional vendor/client arrangement."

Thomas Sunde, QHSE Director at Borr Drilling

Positive and encouraging feedback

"STC INSISO recently delivered the 3-day COMET practitioner course to GSK R&D (UK) engineering and safety professionals.

The COMET team created a bespoke course that was well received by GSK R&D with lots of positive and encouraging feedback."
