Summary
Join us in Edinburgh as Louise shares her brother Michael’s tragic story, highlighting safety failings and inspiring action to save lives.
Michael lost his life in a preventable electrical incident at work. Twenty years on, the lessons from his death remain painfully relevant.
You’ll learn:
- the real-life consequences of preventable workplace incidents
- lessons from health and safety failures and cultural shortcomings
- how to challenge assumptions and inspire meaningful change.
The session is a compelling reminder of why safe systems of work matter and how each of us has a role in preventing tragedies and protecting lives.
