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.

How RiskTalk’s Voice Technology Is Transforming Safety Culture
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of the Fatality Free Future podcast, John Barclay and Holly Ferguson speak with RiskTalk founders Stuart Farquharson and David Press about how their voice-led app is transforming risk assessments and safety conversations. They unpack why traditional paperwork-driven JHAs and hazard reports often miss real work-as-done, how voice-based tools improve engagement and inclusivity (including multi-language teams), and how AI-driven insights help leaders identify critical risk gaps before incidents occur.
