Send us a textIn this episode, Chasity and Scott head to Florida to sit down with newly elected Florida Chapter President Joe Pietrafesa and newly elected Vice President Stephen Dollar. Recorded on Disney property during the state conference, this conversation dives into the real-world challenges fire investigators are facing today—from AI-altered photographs and manipulated metadata to the increasing importance of respiratory protection and long-term health monitoring. Joe opens up about how a routine life scan caught his kidney cancer early, underscoring why PPE and investigator health studies matter more than ever. Steven shares how AI training, modern learning tools, and better accessibility to education are shaping the chapter's future as they aim to expand quarterly training opportunities and leverage new technologies for investigator development.The group also talks about the Florida Chapter's impressive scholarship opportunities, including multiple full-ride awards, and why new investigators should join their state associations to build community and support. Scott and Chasity spar a little on the difference between an interview and an interrogation, the nuances between public and private roles, and what that means for documentation. They also tease next episode's key term: metadata—and how it can help or hurt an investigation. As always, the episode includes a WTF: We Trained Frequently segment, a sponsor spotlight on CleanSpace PAPRs with ITL, and some fun banter about Florida hospitality, Disney buses, and why investigators should take advantage of conferences that double as family-friendly destinations.Evidence Collection (New Class, Not ECT Practicum) Monday, December 8, 2025 – Irvine, CAMotor Vehicle Fire Investigation (3-Day, IAAI Endorsement Eligible) December 9–11, 2025 – Irvine, CANFPA 1321: Conducting Comprehensive Fire Investigations Instructor: Steve Riggs, Legal & Liability Risk Management Institute (LLRMI) December 15, 2025 – OnlineECT (Evidence Collection Technician) Practicum Sold Out — but can be taken at another location after completing the class aboveThank you for listening!

Michael Lard brings a refreshing perspective to the towing industry as he shares his journey from growing up in a towing family to owning Tom's 24-Hour Towing in Elkhart, Indiana. This third-generation tower has transformed his operation into a 16-truck fleet equipped with specialized machinery for handling complex recoveries.What truly stands out in our conversation is Michael's innovative approach to rigging techniques. Working collaboratively with industry experts, he's developed custom configurations using Omega links and container links that significantly improve safety margins while increasing efficiency. These creative solutions demonstrate how thoughtful engineering can transform standard recovery practices into something extraordinary.Michael challenges one of the industry's most entrenched mindsets: "dad and grandpa did it this way." While respecting tradition, he makes a compelling case that continuous learning is essential as vehicle technology rapidly evolves. With modern vehicles featuring composite materials, aluminum components, and sophisticated electronics, yesterday's methods alone aren't enough for today's challenges. As Michael wisely puts it, "Old skills are good skills. They just should not be your only skills."Perhaps most remarkable is Michael's commitment to community collaboration. Rather than viewing nearby companies solely as competitors, he regularly works with towers up to 50 miles away, sharing specialized equipment and expertise. This collaborative spirit extends to training events, where local companies contribute resources to support educational opportunities throughout the region. It's a powerful reminder that when towing professionals work together, everyone benefits.Looking for training opportunities? Join us for the Light and Medium Duty class hosted by Michael in Elkhart on September 6-7, or check out our full schedule of specialized classes happening nationwide. Whether you're focused on electric vehicles, heavy recovery, or rotator operations, we have the training you need to excel in today's demanding environment.

You'll hear about BP's attempt to create a fairer process using eight new questions that focus more on system factors like management influence, procedural clarity, and organizational goal conflicts. They discuss how even this thoughtfully redesigned framework still resulted in predominantly individual-focused interventions, with 80% of actions targeting people rather than systems, despite classifying most incidents as system-induced errors. The episode provides critical insights for safety professionals questioning whether just culture processes add value or represent organizational clutter that should be eliminated entirely. Discussion Points:(00:00) Introduction to just culture models and their problems(03:00) Historical context of Jim Reason's culpability framework and industry adoption(07:37) Introduction to the BP case study research paper and methodology(15:19) Existing BP just culture process and its implementation problems(21:27) Literature review findings on just culture model weaknesses(29:20) The eight question redesigned BP just culture framework(43:25) Evaluation of the new process and classification outcomes(53:25) Practical takeaways and system versus individual focusLike and follow, send us your comments and suggestions for future show topics! Quotes:David Provan: "I think the problem with the just culture model is that we have a just culture model." Drew Rae: "If your system problem is, we are not leaning hard enough onto individuals to behave correctly, then you are not really doing system thinking." David Provan: "Even though we are saying that, you know, this is great because 79% of these cases have now been classified as system-induced errors, over 80% of the actions as a result of those system-induced errors are at the individual leve.l" Drew Rae: "Every single outcome from the process is some sort of statement about disciplining a person, even when it's not disciplining a person. That's still the focus." David Provan: "Any process that you put in place in your organization that doesn't have these quality management aspects is likely to be something that drifts away from its intended purpose."  Resources:Link to the PaperThe Safety of Work PodcastThe Safety of Work on LinkedInFeedback@safetyofwork

Reduce workplace accidents, improve safety awareness, and comply with regulations by providing training to your staff. These five tips lay out the basics you need to know to keep workers safe.

In this episode of Safety Shorts, host Emily Hargrove, NSSGA's Director of Occupational Safety and Health, welcomes Shea Davis, Regional Operations Manager for CDE USA, to discuss the evolution of safety training in the aggregates industry, particularly over NSSGA's 25-year history. Together, they explore the shift from passive, compliance-focused methods to today's interactive, real-world learning essential for engaging younger generations like Millennials and Gen Z. Shea also shares a personal injury story highlighting the critical need for proactive hazard identification and risk assessment tools like "Take 5" or "SLAM." In essence, today's episode emphasizes that modern, effective training goes beyond mere compliance to foster a strong safety culture, prevent accidents, and ensure vital safety knowledge is retained and applied in the field. Main Themes: Evolution of Training Generational Learning Styles The Impact of Inadequate Training Proactive Safety Checks Beyond Compliance Engagement and Retention Visible Felt Leadership (VFL) Future-Proofing the Industry Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions:   Shea talks about the differences between his first training experience in the industry and the training new employees receive today. How have you noticed these trainings change? Shea had a lost time incident that could have been avoided if he had known to stop and assess the situation better. Why do you think it's important to take the time to work safely? Does anyone have a story they would like to share about training they wish they had received earlier in their career? Key Takeaways: "When I was preparing the guard I was told that we had to rush to get the plant up and running... Time was against me." "The grinder ended up catching a side piece of angle iron... which would not have been an issue if I had not repositioned the guard." "This resulted in a trip to the emergency room. I received several stitches, also a few days work. So now I had a lost time accident." "If I had known or been trained to do these small little exercises, this may not have happened at all." "But I don't know what I don't know if I'm not trained on it. So that's how I've seen training evolve over the years." "We, as safety professionals, we have a major responsibility to deliver quality safety content in ways that inexperienced people can retain that information." "Being able to provide the content is important to the younger generation of workers... because they're the ones that are going to drive our industry in the future." "Safety training matters beyond compliance. It's about saving lives and building better workplaces." Links: National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association website Shea Davis

Phil is joined by Loui McCurley to discuss the essential components of effective rescue plans, emphasizing the importance of understanding the subject in distress, the need for timely response, and the implications of suspension trauma. Loui highlights the significance of training and preparedness in rescue scenarios, as well as the potential for growth in the ropes course industry and its impact on personal development and safety practices.   Rescue plans should focus on the subject in distress. Timely response is crucial in rescue situations. Suspension trauma can have serious medical implications. Training should include both verbal and physical reach techniques. Extrication methods should prioritize safety and efficiency. Calling emergency services early can save lives. Understanding the risks of suspension is vital for safety. The ropes course industry has significant growth potential. Rope access techniques improve safety and efficiency in inspections. Adventure education fosters personal growth and teamwork.

From discussing mobile phone use while driving to the challenges of giving advice to older adults at risk of falls, this episode covers ChatGPT's responses to a wide range of safety topics - identifying biases, inconsistencies, and areas where ChatGPT aligns or falls short of expert advice. The broader implications of relying on ChatGPT for safety advice are examined carefully, especially in workplace settings. While ChatGPT often mirrors general lay understanding, it can overlook critical organizational responsibilities, potentially leading to oversimplified or erroneous advice. This episode underscores the importance of using AI-generated content cautiously, particularly in crafting workplace policies or addressing complex safety topics. By engaging with multiple evidence-based sources and consulting experts, organizations can better navigate the limitations of AI tools. Discussion Points:Drew and David discuss their own recent experience with generative AIThe multiple 15 authors are all experts, discussing the methods usedExamining the nine different question scenarios‘Mobile phone use while driving' resultsCrowd/crush safety adviceAdvice for preventing falls in older adultsAnalyzing ChatGPT response formatsExercising outdoors near traffic with asthmaQuestioning ChatGPT about how to engage a distressed person who may commit suicideSafety working ‘under high pressure' and job demands, burnout preventionLack of nuance in ChatGPTThe safety of sharing personal data on fitness apps, how can it be shared safely?Is it safe to operate heavy machinery when fatigued?

So exactly what question the expert asked it, and exactly the transcript of what ChatGPT provided.”- David“In case anyone is wondering about the evidence based advice, if you think there is a nearby terrorist attack, chat GPT's answer is consistent with the latest empirical evidence, which is run. There they go on to say that the rest of the items are essentially the standard advice that police and emergency services give.” - Drew“[ChatGPT] seems to prioritize based on how frequently something appears rather than some sort of logical ordering or consideration of what would make sense.” - Drew“As a supplement to an expert, it's a good way of maybe finding things that you might not have considered. But as a sole source of advice or a sole source of hazard identification or a sole position on safety, it's not where it needs to be…” - DavidResources:The Article - The Risks Of Using ChatGPT to Obtain Common Safety-Related Information and AdviceDisasterCast Episode 54: Stadium DisastersThe Safety of Work PodcastThe Safety of Work on LinkedInFeedback@safetyofwork
