etalon offers companies a wide range of services to effectively address their current safety challenges.
etalon supports companies in organisational development, safety and leadership. We analyse safety and leadership cultures, accompany change processes and offer tailor-made training courses. This includes improving the safety culture, reducing psychological stress and „train the trainer“ programmes. With individually tailored programs and coaching for leadership, we create sustainable solutions.
etalon evaluates a company’s safety culture through expert analyses, self-assessments and ILSA assessments. These analyses evaluate leadership behaviour and include a systematic analysis of psychological stress and cultural aspects
Our experience shows that every business question is unique. Instead of standard solutions, we provide consulting services that are tailored precisely to your specific situation. The results are customised programs that we are confident will be successful.
Sustainable change comes from within. etalon provides support in the form of training, innovative occupational health and safety measures and individual programs, trains multipliers and offers solutions for challenges such as psychological stress
Sustainable cultural change begins with leadership. etalon provides long-term support to companies, from training on new methods to leadership coaching, and tailors all training courses to individual needs.
Behaviour-oriented safety work is based on good communication. We develop tailor-made solutions for goal-oriented and appreciative communication across hierarchical levels and organisational units. We also provide training in dialogue techniques.
Reactive environmental protection for legal reasons is not appropriate today. That is why we support companies in integrating the careful use of natural resources into their value chains.
Behaviour-oriented safety and process reliability complement each other and form a single unit in many manufacturing industries. We support companies in the preparation of vulnerability analyses and risk- based safety programs.
