September Podcast of the Month
Podcast of the Month: Health and Safety To Go! by CCOHS
Practical Safety + Wellbeing Strategies for Today’s Workplaces
At Wellbeing Think Tank, we believe that wellbeing strategies must include safety, and this month’s podcast pick highlights exactly why. Health and Safety To Go!, produced by the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS), offers short, practical episodes that help employers and workplace leaders strengthen their cultures of care.
While the podcast is produced in Canada, the lessons shared are globally relevant, addressing universal challenges like psychological safety, mental health, climate-related workplace risks, and inclusive safety practices.
Why We Love It:
The episodes are brief (typically around 15 minutes), evidence-based, and accessible to safety professionals, HR leaders, and wellness advocates alike. They remind us that integrating safety into wellbeing isn’t about grand gestures, it’s about paying attention to what people need to feel safe, supported, and seen at work.
