Ep100: Celebrating Safety on Tap and You, the Learner, with Andrew Barrett - a podcast by Andrew Barrett | Growing leaders | Drastically improving health & safety

So what's in a number? What's in a lost-time statistic, or the number of leadership walks done, or the average time to return an injured worker to work? Or the time-weighted average exposure to an airborne hazard, or the number of times a repetitive manual task is done?

 

And, what's episode 100 of a podcast all about?
