Intentions don't create safety, actions do.
Jorge L. Torres turns safety from a slide deck into a story your crew actually remembers — on the frontline, in the boardroom, and in two languages.

Are You OK? 5 Honest Lessons from a Recovering Stress Junkie
The safety pro spends all day protecting everyone else's wellbeing — and ignores their own. Drawing on his years as a paramedic and EHS professional, Jorge gets honest about stress, burnout, and what mental self-care really takes.
- Recognize how mental health shifts day to day — and why that's normal
- Spot the stressors and triggers specific to the safety profession
- Use simple self-monitoring techniques before burnout hits
- Know when it's time to seek help — and where to find it
Mentor & Coach Your Way to Safety
A safety pro can't be everywhere at once. Real culture happens when the whole workforce, leadership, and management get involved. Jorge shares the soft skills — coaching, mentoring, and leading — that turn coworkers into safety partners.
- Tell coaching, mentoring, and leadership apart — and when to use each
- Recognize the traits that make each one effective in safety
- Apply simple strategies to engage the people around them
BBS: How Organizational Behavior Impacts Safety Culture
Behavior-Based Safety usually points the finger at workers — and overlooks how leadership's own behavior shapes the culture. Built for executives, managers, and supervisors, this talk tackles Value Enforcement and Organizational Drift head-on.
- Spot the worker and organizational behaviors that shape safety culture
- Understand Value Enforcement and its impact on the organization
- Recognize Organizational Drift before it erodes the culture
- Respond to both with a practical, proven approach
Why Good People Make Bad Decisions
Smart, experienced workers still take shortcuts that put them at risk. Why? A candid look at overconfidence, ego, and the everyday thinking traps behind preventable incidents.
Leading When You're Not the Safety Pro
A leadership workshop for the managers and supervisors who own safety on the ground without the EHS title. How to lead a safety-minded team when it isn't your specialty.
Two languages.
One mission: everyone home.
Jorge L. Torres, CSP, CHST, is a board-certified safety professional, EHS consultant, and author who has spent his career between the boardroom and the frontline — translating not just words, but risk, culture, and trust.
“Safety isn't a poster on the wall. It's a decision someone makes when no one is watching.”
Through The Bilingual Safety Guy, he brings that work to the stage: keynotes that make safety personal for the people most likely to get hurt — and most often left out of the conversation.
