On the Safe Side podcast Episode 7: COVID-19 and mental health concerns

A discussion about the pandemic’s impact on workers and employers, and how personal stories can elevate safety training

EDITOR’S NOTE: Each month, the Safety+Health editorial team discusses important safety topics, and interviews leading voices in the profession.

In Episode 7, the Safety+Health team welcomes University of South Florida public health professor Marissa Levine to discuss how COVID-19 is impacting the mental health of workers and employers. Also, we examine how telling stories can make safety lessons stick. In our Safe Side pop quiz, the editors share which foods they’re missing this year with the cancellation of local fairs and festivals.
