In this session, Avetta Director of Health and Safety Scott DeBow and Principal for Health and Safety Wyatt Bradbury illustrate how recordable rates and compliance checklists are isolated statistics that fall short of capturing the way work is really done. They introduce Avetta’s Safety Maturity Index (SMI) and Culture Maturity Index (CMI), research‑backed tools grounded in ANSI and ISO standards that assess how well safety systems and culture are functioning on the ground.
