Safety Heroes Podcast With Mousa Yassin
The Health, Safety, and Enviroment space is made of everyday people who are real-life heroes, committed to creating a safe environment and engaging safety culture within their companies. Their priority is to ensure each and everyone of their employees gets to return home after a day’s work unharmed, and that both wellbeing and the planet are a core consideration: they are unsung heroes.
In fact, you never hear about them when they do their jobs right!
We want to celebrate these everyday people and inspire others in that space to look at things differently, improve their safety management plans and overall learn as a collective; making “HSE” a cornerstone of every company’s culture.
So let’s celebrate those leaders from the Health, Safety, and Environment space who stand on the frontline and the emotional/human implications of working in the safety space.

#11 - Dr MARCIN NAZARUK: “Learning from Normal Work” or the science behind creating meaningful, tangible change in the safety space
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we are speaking with Dr Marcin Nazaruk, an expert in human and organisational performance;
Marcin takes us through his journey, starting from his psychology background to becoming a leader in the field of safety and human factors.
He emphasises the significance of mindset, skillset, and toolset in transforming safety practices and highlights the need for a proactive mindset that goes beyond blaming individuals for unsafe behaviour;
and instead focuses on learning from mistakes.
He also talks about the importance of developing the necessary skills, such as active listening and effective questioning, to foster a culture of continuous improvement.
Additionally, Marcin discusses the role of tools and frameworks in systematising the application of these principles.
One key aspect that we touched on too is psychological first aid, which Marcin believes is essential in response to incidents. By looking beyond simple cause and effect, and instead exploring the context and underlying challenges, organisations can take proactive measures to prevent accidents before they happen.
A very different conversation with learnings that are applicable and useful way beyond the realm of the safety space.
