Speaker Interview | Adv. Raynard Looch | 2026 Saiosh Health and Safety Conference. 🎙

When something goes catastrophically wrong on a workplace or construction site, who carries the legal responsibility?

At our 2026 Health & Safety Conference, we sat down with Advocate Raynard Looch to unpack the legal anatomy behind serious workplace incidents, using a major bridge-collapse case as the starting point for a much wider conversation about occupational health and safety law in South Africa.

The conversation then moves into the future of South African OHS legislation, including the proposed amendment process, concerns around the wording of the Bill, the concept of “reasonably practicable”, possible consolidation of different safety regulators, and the way fatal workplace incidents are currently investigated.

Speaker Interview | Dr. Greg Kew | 2026 Saiosh Health and Safety Conference. 🎙

What does it actually mean when an employee is declared medically fit for work?

We sat down with occupational medicine specialist Dr. Greg Kew to unpack medical fitness to work, practitioner competency, the reliability of occupational medicals, and the growing role of mental health in determining whether someone is truly suited to the demands of a job.

Dr. Kew explains why a fitness decision should be based on more than simply identifying a health condition. The practitioner also needs to understand the inherent requirements of the job, the worker’s occupational risk exposure, and whether the medical testing itself can be trusted.

Speaker Interview | Kate Collier | 2026 Saiosh Health and Safety Conference. 🎙

In this interview, Kate Collier, Occupational health and safety legal specialist from Webber Wentzel joins us to unpack workplace mental health, psychosocial risks, burnout, and the legal responsibilities employers need to consider when protecting the whole employee.

We discuss how mental health fits into occupational health and safety law, when conditions such as PTSD may become occupational matters, why burnout is being viewed as an organisational phenomenon, and why psychosocial hazards should form part of workplace risk assessments.

Speaker Interview | Charles Tetteh | 2026 Saiosh Health and Safety Conference. 🎙

In this interview, Charles Tetteh, Health and Safety Leader at Tata Chemicals, joins My Safety Hub for a conversation about storytelling, perspective, curiosity, trust, and the human side of workplace safety.

Charles explores the limitations of focusing only on rules and behaviour, the conditions that influence the decisions people make, and how genuine relationships can help organisations co-create safer workplaces with the people doing the work.

The conversation challenges us to ask a deceptively simple question with genuine curiosity: “How was your journey?” Because when we understand someone’s perspective, we gain context. And when we gain context, the safety conversation changes.
