In episode one, Kate and Greg share their experience working in the legal and psychology fields and discuss how their insights into both fields overlap. They discuss their motivations for creating the podcast and share their views around the "flavour of the month" phenomena that is psychosocial risk management. Having first met in the early stages of their careers nearly 30 years ago, Kate and Greg are on still on a quest to break the myth that psychosocial regulation is a “new” concept. They believe traditional workplace health and safety processes are not enough to make a genuine difference to protect people’s psychological health, or an employer’s legal risks. So, if that’s the case, what is?

Grab a drink, join Kate and Greg in conversation as they expand your “safety” and “psychological” literacy and have some fun along the way!”
