The Adams & Heys Podcast

It's been a while since we've sat down, we briefly chat about what we've been up to, answer the question 'can safety professionals go to jail?' in a myth busters.. and chat about Work at Height, in honor of work at height week.

On this Podcast we interview Katherine Evans, to get an in-depth and down-to-earth look at the experience of women in heavy industry, particularly the provision of welfare and PPE.

Nathan Wilkinson-Jones is an oracle when it comes to dust and particulates, and also a down to earth and straight talking, good humored, health and safety professional. We start to peel the lid back on dust, particulates and why it's so hard to get operatives wearing masks to be clean shaven.

Following on from the tragic death of another worker on a construction site, we delve deeper into comments made by Laing O'rourke in their annual report around the challenges posed by Fixed Priced Contracts and whether its possible to maintain a Safe working environment in the current financial climate.

We have a look at the latest construction fail from the Department for Education. We bring back Myth Busters where we talk about whether you can sack someone for not holding a handrail and should you ban bread knifes? All with a lot of laughter.

So the HSE 2023 stats have landed.. lets be honest, this episode is 10% reading stats, and 90% ranting about them. Oh and we celebrate Melissa Fazackerley's nomination for SHP's most influential person of the year award.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Patrick Tydeman from Stalsen a challenger brand in the PPE manufacturing sector to tap into what it means to be a challenger in the Safety Industry.

In honor of World Mental Health day, we chat about how Anthony and Dan look after their own mental health and the S.C.A.R.F model which organisations can use to do a self audit of Psychological Safety.
