Born in New Zealand, Sophia (or Sophie) Rossow's parents were dairy farmers. She moved to Perth when she was 3. Graduating from university with an equivalent of an occupational health and safety degree, she worked in OH&S for several years before setting up Spring Safety (although as you will hear, that was not its original name) in 2007.

With the increase in importance of psycho-social safety at workplaces, especially due to recent legislation changes, she works with a range of businesses consulting on their OHS and ISO certification needs.

"Every team and every site has different psycho-social hazards. You might have a great experience at one site, and then go to another one and not have that same support.” ~ Sophia Rossow
