Yep Mike, same outcome but very different baggage. I may be biased due to being an OHS perosn but the amount of obstacles, denial and fatalism from HR profesionals on this hazard is staggering. I try to also take the bigger picture to try and understand the ideological, political and economic pressures on employers but significant change is possible at the HR level.

There are no pre-determined heroes or villains in this play, just two players that generally want the same thing (healthy people, healthy business) but have different tool bags and a different language! What could possibly go wrong 😉
