Courtney shares her journey in the field, emphasising the importance of integrating workplace health and safety into the cultural agenda of businesses. The conversation explores various aspects of workplace safety, including the risks to employees, the significance of regulations and codes, and the shift towards a more holistic view that encompasses mental health and psychosocial hazards. Courtney discusses the need for organisations to build capability in their people rather than control them, and she provides insights into common myths surrounding workplace safety.
