Behind every workplace accident, near miss, or fatality, there are people left carrying the weight of what happened. For OSH professionals, being the ones who respond, investigate, and support others in the aftermath, this can take a brutal toll on mental health. In this raw, unfiltered session, members of the IOSH presidential team will share their real-life experiences of dealing with the psychological fallout of workplace incidents. Let's break the silence, talk about the human cost and make sure no one carries the burden alone.
