This program was developed through a creative sentencing project in partnership with the Government of Alberta and an oil and gas well servicing company, turning a real incident into an opportunity for industry-wide learning. This program goes beyond technical knowledge, focusing on how work is actually done—and how human and organizational factors impact safe work environments.
Pressure hazards are often unseen—but can have serious or fatal consequences.
This program helps teams:
Learn directly from a real incident and its contributing factors.
Recognize how pressure behaves and where risks exist.
Strengthen systems to respond and recover when things don’t go as planned.
Move beyond compliance toward practical, resilient safety practices.
By transforming a real-world event into shared learning, the program helps prevent similar incidents across the industry.
This program is built for anyone working around pressurized systems, especially in the energy industry, including:
Frontline workers
Supervisors and team leads
Safety professionals
Organizations strengthening their safety culture
