How I think about writing for this industry…
“Occupational health and safety is one of the few beats where the gap between good practice and poor practice is measured in injuries, illnesses, and lives. I try to write with that weight in mind, covering the regulatory developments and the cultural failures with the same seriousness, because both matter to the safety professionals I write for.”
