Rebranding Safety with Pete Rushmer - CoHost for Q3! Episode 1

Do you manage fleet as part of your role? This can often be the case for safety professionals, and vice versa. Thanks to Pete for joining us on the podcast (finally!) to talk all things fleet over the next 3 episodes. It's a technical one this week. Pete gives us a crash course on operator licencing, amongst other classifications in this complex industry. They chat about recognition standards, driver shortages, with some human factors thrown in. Pete really knows his stuff so give this one a listen - excited for what's to come over the rest of the quarter. Enjoy.

Rebranding Safety - How to manage risk during a heatwave - tips for employers

The MET Office has issued a red weather warning for extreme heat for Monday 18th and Tuesday 19th July 2022 in parts of the UK, meaning it is likely that there will be a risk to life. Employers have a duty to manage this risk to their employees. We hope you find value in this video and stay safe.

Rebranding Safety REACTS - Episode 3 - 'Safety First'

In this episode of Rebranding Safety Reacts, James gives his thoughts on the phrase 'safety first'. Is it impactful? Or is it a platitude? To explain his thoughts, James uses the 'Safety work vs the safety of work' model by Andrew Rae and David Provan, plus Rasmussen's dynamic safety model and the Culture Principles by Carsten Busch. Check it out on YouTube to see the presentation!

Rebranding Safety with Sheila Lord

A big thank you to Sheila for joining us on the pod this week. Sheila is the Director of BMR - Health and Wellbeing, who help to improve mental health in the workplace. We talk about getting to the route of the problem, where mental health sits within the organisation and who's responsibility it is, ISO's (how and who), behaviour and culture change and they give their thoughts on how mental health is currently being dealt with.

Rebranding Safety with Sam Neal - CoHost for Q2! Episode 3

Gutted to say it's my last chat with Sam! In this last episode of the segment about the journey to building our own consultancies, we talk about imposter syndrome, the grind and the struggles behind the scenes, loneliness, building a community, pricing yourself, and whether or not there's room for us in the market. I've gained so much from these conversations with Sam, we hope you do too.

Rebranding Safety with Ben Legg

So glad to have the wonderful Ben Legg joining us this week to talk about communication and language. As the Global Corporate Health & Safety Director at Ferrovial, Ben has so much experience in learning how to communicate effectively in different ways, working across multiple countries with different languages and cultures. They discuss context, tone, swearing, semiotics and how to use language in different forms in order to be more inclusive. Enjoy!

Rebranding Safety REACTS - Episode 2 - Fire alarm chat

A short one this week - here's my reaction to my hotel fire alarm going off at 5am (false alarm) and only 3 people evacuating.

Rebranding Safety with Sam Neal - CoHost for Q2! Episode 2

Sam is back with us for another cracking episode talking about the journey to building our own health and safety consultancy. This week we go into what preparations (if any!) we did before making the jump, the unknown unknowns, and the tricks of the trade. Quote of the episode: "What's an SEO?!". Enjoy.

Rebranding Safety with Alex Clarke TW: Talk of suicide

TW: Talk of suicide. This week, we chat to the wonderful Alex Clarke all about his mental health journey, burnout, and the things we can do now to make sure people feel safe to speak out about their own mental health. Thank you so much, Alex, for sharing your story.
