I've build HS training programs around Te Whare Tapa Wha and Fonofale models.
I also find that when I train, it's 20% content and 80% delivery. While I always cover the material, no two training sessions are the same.

I was in an interview scenario today where different interested parties came in and out of the interview asking me questions - "Why health and safety?" The kinds of things that came to mind for me were:
1. While many fall into health and safety (e.g. "...through business necessity"), HS is something I stepped into.
2. Throughout my career HS has been a thread weaving its way through various responsibilities, projects etc, coming together to form a larger fabric.
3. It is borne out of a compassionate appreciation for people, a genuine interest in people.
4. I have quite an analytical mind and so the system aspects of HS really appeal to me.

My introduction to HS as a discipline came through rep training back in 2007. I have then progressed through the various stages of HSR training, completed a lot of other HS training especially the more practical aspects (managing high risk work - e.g. work at height) as well as things like ICAM, ISO45001, and other more system focused training.

Through it, I wouldn't say I have been influenced by particular individuals, theorists, or theories but have developed an interest in some of the causation analysis side of significant events around the world e.g. Chernoybl, Bhopal, Pike River, global issues regarding asbestos etc.

lol - i'm glad. Pike River is a key to understanding the context of HS in NZ
