Spending Too Much Time Creating Safety Content? Here’s What 70+ Pros Said
Safety leaders wear a lot of hats—and content creator is often one of them.
To better understand how much time professionals are spending on safety and training content, we conducted a survey of members in the OSHA Discussion & Support / Occupational Safety / EHS / HSE LinkedIn group—an active public community with over 210,000 members.
The Question We Asked
How much time a week do you spend creating safety and training content?
Here’s what 71 respondents told us:
48% said they spend 1 to 5 hours per week
15% spend 5 to 10 hours
10% spend more than 10 hours
Only 27% said they spend less than 30 minutes
In total, 73% of respondents spend at least an hour every week developing safety or training materials.
What This Means
73% of respondents spend at least an hour every week developing safety or training materials.
Creating high-quality, relevant safety content isn’t a “set-it-and-forget-it” task. It takes time, effort, and in many cases, manual processes that pull safety pros away from more strategic responsibilities like site visits, incident investigations, and culture building.
The data tells us that most safety professionals are already stretched thin. And for the 1 in 4 who spend less than 30 minutes per week? That’s not necessarily a sign of efficiency—it could mean content is being deprioritized, or they lack tools to do it effectively.
A Better Way to Deliver Safety Content
If you're spending hours each week writing safety lessons, tracking delivery, and manually chasing engagement, you're not alone. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
