Intention Vs Impact, and Bringing Back the Good Name of Health & Safety, With Natalie Von Tersch

Intention Vs Impact, and Bringing Back the Good Name of Health & Safety, With Natalie Von Tersch

When did we forget that health and safety is about protecting people, not red tape?

In this energising and refreshingly honest conversation, I'm joined by Natalie von Tersch, founder of Mint, to explore the real-world impact of safety done well... and what happens when it isn't. From motorway fatalities to dishwasher debates, we dive into why safety culture needs a human-first reboot, and how to lead that change from the boardroom to the shop floor.

🔍 Highlights

  • Where it all began: Natalie's origin story, how a workplace fatality shaped her entire approach to safety.
  • Intention vs impact: Why doing "just enough" compliance often misses the point entirely.
  • Reclaiming the narrative: Tackling the "health & safety says no" culture with common sense and clarity.
  • Behavioural safety: Embracing human error instead of punishing it and designing for it.
  • Influencing upwards: How to engage leadership with ROI, not red tape.
  • Training that sticks: Using questions, stories, and lived experience to create lasting behavioural change.
  • The 'dishwasher theory' of culture: A brilliant metaphor for alignment, clarity, and safety systems that work.
  • The next frontier: Why health (not just safety) must take centre stage, and what to do about it now.
