Headland Safety helps industrial organizations understand how work is really happening, build stronger EHS systems, and give leaders practical ways to manage risk.

Introduction

Most companies don't have a safety effort problem.

Seventy-eight seconds on what that distinction means on a plant floor, and what Headland does about it.

Who this is built for

Five people who tend to make the call.

  • Plant & operations leadership

    Leaders accountable for production who need to know where real exposure sits and what to do about it first.

  • EHS managers and staff

    Practitioners who need an independent read, a system built properly, or senior support that does not replace them.

  • Executive buyers

    Corporate leadership deciding where EHS investment goes across sites, and what standard applies to all of them.

  • Captive & broker contacts

    Loss-prevention and risk-control work for captive members and broker partners, delivered to a defined scope with a written deliverable.

  • HR & learning leaders

    Leadership development and training programs that have to change practice, not only satisfy a records requirement.

Field view

The system on paper is not the system on the floor.

Many findings are not surprises to the people doing the work. They are surprises to the organization reading its own documentation.

  • Observation across the work, not a single walkthrough
  • Verification at the equipment, not at the binder
  • Findings written to support decisions, ownership and follow-through

How an engagement runs

Track record

Selected experience

Headland is a new firm; the experience behind it is not. Each of these is work Travis Olson led inside industrial organizations before founding it.

  • Multi-site EHS governance

    Built and ran EHS management systems across manufacturing and field-service operations in North America and Europe. Common standards and tools at the center, execution owned at each site.

  • Injury and severity reduction

    Critical-risk work and leadership engagement that took a multi-site portfolio from a 2.9 lost-time injury rate to zero, and lost-time severity from 59.49 to zero.

  • Captive program leadership

    Led captive programs that cut insurance cost by 30% and returned $350,000 to $530,000 a year in dividends.

  • Safety leadership development

    Built critical-risk programs and leader tools that moved safety conversations from compliance checking toward recognizing exposure and improving controls.

EHS infrastructure

Systems need somewhere to live.

For organizations that have outgrown spreadsheets and disconnected records, Headland can implement ShieldSphere as the digital infrastructure behind the EHS management system.

A sentence or two is enough. The exposure, the site, and what is driving the timing.
