    Feb 6 2025

    In the first Word to the Wise podcast for 2025, Kingston Reid partners John Makris, Liam Fraser, and Michael Stutley are back for another Safety and Regulatory update.

    In this episode, the team pick up where they left off, reflecting on the key trends from 2024 which are expected to continue into the new year, including the continued focus from regulators on safety leadership in the psychosocial hazards space. They also look at two recent cases, one in Australia and one in New Zealand, which shed further light on the due diligence duties of officers in large companies and explain what the key lessons are for employers.
