What should we call those players who manipulate the World Handicap System – and what should clubs do about them? The R&A give us their answer. This week Steve Carroll is joined by Grant Moir, The R&A's executive director of governance, to talk about a new awareness campaign reminding players of their responsibilities under the Rules of Handicapping and what's expected of handicap committees. It's a strong line from the governing body and, yes, the C-word is prominent. But we also discuss some of the other concerns golfers have about WHS, and dwell on some of the positives since the introduction of the system in 2020.

This episode marks the first in a new Ashurst series on Employment and Safety law developments in Australia. After collaborating on a landmark psychosocial risk court case, Ashurst partner Scarlet Reid and State Chambers barrister Bruce Hodgkinson AM SC reflect on what employers might learn. Along the way, Scarlet and Bruce discusses the threshold for psychosocial harm and whether stress meets that test, the complexities of what constitutes “reasonable management action” and the importance of regularly updating employer policies. They also emphasise the value of training and instruction for line managers so that they can handle sensitive discussions in a way that is legally compliant, psychologically safe, and appropriate. “There’s so much learning to come in this area,” Scarlet adds. “Guidance from courts will be very important as this area of the law continues to develop.” To listen to this and subscribe to future episodes in this series search for “Ashurst Legal Outlook” on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your favourite podcast player.

"I worked in Edinburgh for 13 years and was part of the team that led on the nomination bid for the Forth Bridge. The sound of The Bridge was important for me to include in the piece as I feel partly responsible for it being considered a WHS.  "The aim of the piece was to highlight the role of sound in shaping the tourist experience. The familiarity of the train crossing could evoke a sense of nostalgia or authenticity for those who have visited or even those who have never been, giving them a sensory connection to the location. "It captures a moment in time, a fleeting sonic experience that could change over the years due to technological advances, environmental factors, or changes in infrastructure. By preserving this sound, the piece acts as a form of auditory preservation. It invites the listener to reflect on how sounds of historical or cultural significance might fade or transform over time, encouraging an appreciation for the transient nature of these sonic environments. In this way, The Soft Entrance acts as a digital archive or a tribute to the sounds that define this iconic location, protecting them from being lost to future generations. "The sound encapsulates both the industrial heritage of the bridge and its modern-day function, reflecting how these sounds are embedded in the cultural identity of Scotland and the UK. The Soft Entrance aims to evoke feelings of connection, history, and the reverence that people hold for such places. "Iconic landmarks like The Forth Bridge come with sonic signatures—sounds that have become inseparable from the place's identity. In the piece, the train crossing the bridge represents not just a literal sound but an auditory symbol of the location itself. Sonic landscapes of famous places are often tied to the rituals, daily practices, and memories of those who interact with them. By using this sound, The Soft Entrance acknowledges the role of sound as a medium for both local identity and global recognition. It touches on the idea that these sounds are not just background noise but an integral part of the experience and significance of the place. The piece suggests that sound is essential to the collective memory and cultural practices tied to renowned landmarks like The Forth Bridge. "In essence, The Soft Entrance can be seen as a sonic meditation on the ways sound shapes our understanding of places of cultural significance, preserving them for future generations and connecting listeners to the tangible and intangible histories these places represent. It's a reminder of how sound is a key part of our heritage and how it can deepen our connection to the places and practices that have shaped history. "By choosing not to modify or manipulate the sound I maintained the authenticity of the field recording. The sound of the train crossing The Forth Bridge is an unaltered representation of the actual sonic landscape of that location. The aim was to highlight the importance of capturing and archiving the authentic sonic environment. This decision underscores the idea that these sounds, in their natural form, hold cultural, historical, and emotional value. "The train crossing the Forth Bridge is not just a noise; it's a powerful symbol of engineering, history, and human interaction with the environment.  "In essence, the decision not to alter the sound in The Soft Entrance reinforces the themes of preservation, authenticity, and the natural sonic heritage of the place. It allows the raw sound to speak for itself, creating an experience that emphasizes the intrinsic value of the place and its sounds without interference. "The decision not to modify or manipulate the sound in The Soft Entrance becomes even more poignant when considered alongside my personal connection to the Forth Bridge. As part of the team that helped secure the Forth Bridge's designation as a UNESCO World Heritage site, the bridge has taken on a deep, multifaceted significance for me. This involvement made me acutely aware of the cultural, historical, and sonic heritage tied to this iconic structure. "This piece, through its raw sound, is my way of honoring the Forth Bridge's heritage—both as an enduring symbol of engineering and as a key part of Scotland's cultural fabric. It invites listeners to reflect on the bridge's significance and, by extension, the broader conversation about the preservation of sound as part of the world's shared cultural legacy."

In this episode of Risk! Engineers Talk Governance, due diligence engineers Richard Robinson and Gaye Francis this season's theme of "Difficult Conversations Engineers Need to Have About Risk". Key discussion points include:Risk is multidimensional. Risk covers a big domain that has lead to confusion.There are three different types of risk, but R2A's focus is typically on safety risk and project risk – downside risk.Commercial industry like to focus on upside, downside risk (risk and reward, risk appetite and innovation), but Engineers should focus on downside risk.Innovation and Risk Management is good but not at the expense of zero harm and the WHS/OHS legislation.Often innovation is the solution to the problem but cannot compromise safety.Innovation cannot be encouraged as the focus of Risk Management.Safety risk shouldn't been seen as an obstruction; safety is non-negotiable.Don't just choose one technique because if you do, and particularly if you ignore the WHS legislation requirements, you're going to set yourself up for a pretty serious fall.  For further information on Richard and Gaye's consulting work with R2A, head to https://www.r2a.com.au. Gaye is also founder of women's safety workwear company Apto PPE if you'd like to check out the garments at https://www.aptoppe.com.au

In this episode of Risk! Engineers Talk Governance, due diligence engineers Richard Robinson and Gaye Francis discuss the obligations for engineers under the WHS legislation (OHS Act in Victoria) and understanding the importance of their role if things go wrong.They discuss the fact that Work Health and Safety (WHS) legislation is the overarching legislation in Australia that must guide engineering design and decision-making, and their surprise at this lack of awareness and how many still (wrongly) use Standards as a design basis.They emphasise that engineers are central to upholding WHS requirements, as they are the designers responsible when things go wrong and that the engineering design process needs to be a top-down, holistic approach that considers all relevant stakeholders and objectives, not a bottom-up siloed approach. Find out more about Richard and Gaye's consulting work at https://www.r2a.com.au.    

In this episode, Australian hosts Jason and Joelle chat with Anna Dawson, Organisational Psychologist and Board Director.

In this episode of Risk! Engineers Talk Governance, due diligence engineers Richard Robinson and Gaye Francis discuss the new booklet titled "Due Diligence Essentials for Engineers" being authored by Richard Robinson and Gaye Francis. They talk about the need for the booklet being that Engineers are becoming more involved in the governance process in providing information to boards, directors and senior people. Engineers are ones aware of the critical things that can go wrong and what boards need to know about for their due diligence obligations under the WHS/OHS legislation.Other areas of discussion include:Whilst most engineers aren't directors and, therefore, don't have the due diligence obligations as spelt out by the WHS legislation, the legislation is specific about duties of designers.Engineers can not rely on Standards or Codes of Practice to absolve themselves of liability.When should engineers elevate issues to higher levels of decision-makers, and the importance of transparency in their decision-making process.Engineers can't be right all the time, but can be diligent. And with Registration of Engineers, due diligence provides a tool to be able to say they've done everything that is reasonable in the circumstances to make whatever they're working on safe. For more information about Richard and Gaye's consulting work, head to https://www.r2a.com.au/The books mentioned in this episode can be found at https://www.r2a.com.au/storeIf you'd like to be kept up-to-date with R2A news, including the launch of “Due Diligence Essentials for Engineers”, sign up at https://www.r2a.com.au/newsletter

Head of First Nations Strategy and Advisory Trent Wallace welcomes Tony Morris, who leads Ashurst Risk Advisory's work health and safety (WHS) and psychosocial risk capability, to learn more about psychosocial risks in the workplace and the unique challenges First Nations employees face. This episode delves into the definition and impact of psychosocial risks in the workplace and how psychosocial risks can be categorised into four groups: work design, social, work environment, and governance, each encompassing specific hazards like job demands, bullying, remote work, and organisational change management. The discussion also highlights the unique challenges First Nations employees face, referencing recent reports like Gari Yala. These include role clarity, reward and recognition, and cultural load, underscoring the importance of incorporating a First Nations perspective in risk assessments.

Do you or your team members engage in a computer-intensive role in the workplace? If so, we're confident that you'll greatly benefit from the expertise of Dr. Liz Kirk, founder of Beyond Ergo and one of Australia's leading researchers and trainers in ergonomic and self-care competencies. In the newest episode of The Safety Guru, Liz expresses why self-care is a safety issue by sharing the negative effects taking place as a result of our increasingly sedentary and screen-intensive work style, including a higher risk of musculoskeletal injuries and disorders. Tune in as Liz shares her research into personal protective behaviors, such as postural mindfulness and developing habits of releasing muscle tension, to decrease musculoskeletal aches and pains at work. About the Guest: Dr. Liz Kirk (PhD) won the Deans Award at the University of Queensland for her 2013 PhD research focused on defining and reducing levels of musculoskeletal pain and MSD among knowledge workers in the Australian Contact Centre industry. While the original research focused on using clients' anthropometry to refine ergonomic recommendations to match stature, the Beyond Ergo talks and workshops now go beyond ergonomics to build a broad range of Personal Protective Behaviours (PPBs). These are the new WHS and wellness self-care competencies knowledge workers need to take greater personal responsibility for their health and safety in computer-intensive work environments, no matter where they work.
