    In the July/Aug edition of Safeguard magazine we pose these questions based on stories in the magazine:
    • WorkSafe chief executive Phil Parkes wants to shift the conversation so that the discussion with business is about how to achieve better work. He suggests H&S practitioners do the same. Have you tried this? How did it work out?
    • With the focus in recent years on critical risks, have we collectively forgotten about the widespread but non-fatal risk of musculoskeletal disorders? And can worker-led job design steer us towards better?
    • Rather than paying a fine, defendants being directed to spend money on projects to benefit H&S in their sector sounds like a great idea, but may leave victims feeling justice has not been served. How best to find a balance?

    Feel free to respond in public to one or more of these questions here on the Forum, or privately here via a Survey Monkey form.

    An edited selection of responses will be published in the Sept/Oct edition, but with no names attached. One randomly selected person will receive a prize, namely a copy of the Health & Safety Handbook 2020, published by Thomson Reuters.
