Unmasking Safety’s Myth of Individualism identifies a critical gap in current safety thinking: safety is not solely an individual responsibility but a social outcome that entails collective action and thinking. Focusing on individual responsibility often translates into individual blame (frequently disguised as accountability) and is usually accompanied by a reluctance to recognize the psychosocial harm that leads to physical and emotional injuries.
