The Workplace Health & Safety Show will be held in Melbourne on May 21 with one of the features being a panel discussion on the unique challenges women face in the OHS space and practical strategies to address these issues.

The panel will be led by Alanna Ball, founder of Women in Safety, and will also discuss how to increase resilience and achieve a work-life balance. 

“The future of safety leadership is human-centred — it's about relationships, communication, and culture just as much as compliance,” Ball says.

A free networking event will be held after the panel discussion.
