In this premiere episode of the Fatality Free Future® podcast, Safety Leadership Coach John Barclay and Content Developer Holly Ferguson aim to create a space where critical conversations around workplace safety can happen. John shares how he started his safety journey over 20 years ago, as a first responder to a fatality. It was an experience that changed his life and spurred his purpose to eliminate fatalities in the workplace.

The team also discuss what SIF means, why traditional metrics often fail to capture the full picture, and how shifting from lagging indicators to leading ones can transform how organisations approach risk.
