It’s hard to believe, but we recently marked a year of doing this show. In that time, we’ve had the pleasure of speaking to a wide range of remarkable safety leaders, who are all deeply passionate about making Nova Scotia a safer place to work and live. There has been something inspirational in every episode we’ve done so far.
To mark our first anniversary, we wanted to do something a little different, and listen back and reflect on some of the big lessons we’ve learned. It’s a great opportunity to have those important conversations about the role everyone plays in contributing to a safe work environment. For this episode, we are featuring a compilation of clips from some of our favourite moments from the show so far.
Joining us for the conversation is someone who knows a lot about the importance of Safety and Health Week. Craig Whitehead is currently the President and CEO of Safety Services Nova Scotia, and was formerly the Manager of the Corporate Operational Resources department at the WCB. He also took a very active role in planning our own internal Safety and Health Week activities for many years.
Together, Shelley and Craig discuss the themes covered from past episodes, including individual impacts on safety and why purposeful leadership is key. We look forward to continuing conversations about the importance of safety, and committing to making improvements to your own workplace safety practices.

What is WorkShift?
It’s been said that we learn from experience. But we can learn a lot more when we add the experiences of others to our own.
On WorkShift, we're putting leaders in workplace safety on the mic to talk health, safety, but most of all, leadership in a world that has changed forever. Hear the stories behind their successes, and their failures, and how they’re meeting the same challenges you may be facing.
Whether you’re a leader or someone who enjoys inspiring conversations, WorkShift will change the way you think about work.
