Fatality Free Future® Podcast
The program and podcast for safety
We want to see a world where people go to work and come home safely every day.
Over the past decade, more than 1,880 people have lost their lives to traumatic injuries in Australian workplaces. More than 1.16 million workers have made serious compensation claims involving extended time off work (Safe Work Australia, 2024).
We believe these incidents are not inevitable. With the right focus, strategies, and support, they are preventable.
Our mission is simple. To help individuals and organisations focus on what really matters, building safer routines, stronger strategies, and ultimately, saving lives.
The Fatality Free Future® podcast is hosted by Safety Leadership Coach John Barclay and Content Developer Holly Ferguson. We discuss with experts SIF history, ideas and research while providing practical examples, hearing real-world examples and imparting tangible take-aways for listeners to implement in their workplace.

Identifying Serious Injury and Fatality Signals | Fatality Free Future #7
In this episode of the Fatality Free Future® John Barclay and Holly Ferguson discuss precursors and amplifiers. Precursors are events that precede an incident, often involving high-risk activities and ineffective controls. Amplifiers are changes in context or people that increase the severity of risk.
John emphasises the importance of active risk management, understanding critical controls, and ensuring tools and equipment are accessible to prevent workarounds that compromise safety.
