Probability Matters

What role does the common citizen (worker) play in the new big data economy? What does it mean to be a Citizen Scientist? What advances in worker health will technology bring? What ethical dilemmas need to be solved? We invited Kalie Boot on the show to discuss these topics and more.

What happens when things go wrong? Specifically full-blown emergency wrong? This week we invited Dyron Hamlin and Joe Cameron to discuss how Industrial Hygiene works in a crisis. They both brought a tremendous amount of experience and thought to the discussion. 

Racism is a hazard. Our hosts Mwangi and Kyle discuss racism, explain why it is a hazard, and explore possible solutions to solving this problem. This episode is not final we do not have all answers. We only speak for ourselves. We encourage you to have conversations with those around you. To connect with us please visit our LinkedIn page https://www.linkedin.com/company/probability-matters.

This week we reflect on both the future and the past of Industrial Hygiene. For our discussion, we invited two very qualified Industrial Hygienists with two varied perspectives. John Baker and Justin Lopez reflect on how far we have come in the field. They also discuss their picture of the road ahead. An essential episode to those experienced in the field or those just starting. 

The profession of Industrial Hygiene (I.H.) can cover and impact many areas of business and worker health. Accordingly, we invited Robert Waterhouse to discuss the many areas where I.H. can have an impact. The conversation is wide open, resulting in an episode that covers several topics.

Here are the timestamps if there is a particular segment that interests you. We also encourage you to listen to the entire episode: 

3:27-Risk Tolerance/COVID-19

In this episode we ask the question: "Is safety a competitive advantage?" OR "Is safety a collaborative opportunity"? What challenges present themselves to collaboration? What are best practices to help foster engagement and collaboration? We discuss this topic at length with a wonderful guest Melanie Adams.

Is the future of safety social? How will current and future safety leaders effectively communicate their messages? How will they build culture? We invited a friend of the show Abby Ferri to discuss the potential of social media for safety professionals. Please make sure to follow Abby on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/safetyabby/

What is Risk? How do organizations go about defining it? How should you manage it? How do you measure it? And what role can big data play? This episode is an open conversation with our guest Evgeny Andronov, DABT, CIH, CSP. Be prepared for a detailed and measured discussion.

We continue our series about Data Science with our final installment featuring Nick Bernini. This conversation takes a realistic look at the benefits and challenges of adopting data into your safety programs. Nick does a fantastic job providing prospective for the current state and the future ahead. Listen in whatever order to this series you choose. But please listen to both. 

Data scientists will play a significant role in the future. Accordingly, we are kicking off a two-part special on Data Science! Our first guest is Lohrasp Seify. He has a wonderfully diverse background, which lends itself to a well rounded and informative discussion. If you are curious about Data Science and the impact it will play on the future of worker safety and health, download the episode now.
