CSG July-2026 speaker Sam Hall: Climate change as an OHS issue

Climate change as an OHS issue

Presentation by: Sam Hall, Researcher & PhD Candidate, La Trobe University

CSG event video now available (members only)
Presentation package now available (members only)

The impact of climate change on worker health and safety, and the response by OHS professionals, was discussed by Sam Hall in a lunchtime presentation to Central Safety Group on Tuesday 9 June.

Sam is doing PhD research into how climate change is creating new and emerging risks for worker health, safety and wellbeing. She is also exploring how occupational health professionals in Australia perceive these impacts of climate change, as well the role they can play in workplace climate adaptation.

Sam presented preliminary findings on the perceptions of climate-related risks at work. She also discussed how workplaces may respond proactively to climate change as an OHS and work design issue.

The talk was followed by audience questions and discussion.

Our members always appreciate hearing about new research, especially as it stimulates new thinking and inspires innovation in OHS management.

The presenter:

Sam Hall is a qualified physiotherapist and ergonomist with 20 years’ experience across occupational health and safety, rehabilitation, wellbeing, coaching, and education. She is currently a graduate researcher completing a PhD at La Trobe University’s Climate Change Adaptation Lab, investigating the climate change impacts on health at work. Sam holds a Bachelor of Physiotherapy and a Masters of Health Science (Ergonomics) from the University of Queensland, and a Masters of Health Science (OHS) from Queensland Institute of Technology.

Designing good work


What if work wasn’t the problem but the solution to wellbeing? That is the premise of the fascinating book 'Good Work – Transform Your Work from the Inside Out', released earlier this year by organisational psychologist and leadership partner Dr Kat Page.

Central Safety Group offers you the opportunity to hear from Kat at our monthly event on Tuesday 10 November, where she will challenge the idea that work is inherently harmful.
Drawing on science, stories, and practical tools, Kat's book shows how leaders and teams can design work that’s both human and high-performing. This is based on a new framework for change: Me, We, Us.

Me – How do I redesign my own relationship with work so it fuels rather than depletes me?
We – How do we create teams that energise and protect each other?
Us – How do we build organisations and societies where good work is the norm, not the exception?

​Good Work is both a guide and a call to collective action. It’s written for leaders, change-makers, and anyone ready to change work for good – for themselves and for others.
Kat's book has been highly recommended by CSG members, including Kevin Jones. Don't miss your chance to meet Kat and join what is bound to be a very stimulating discussion.
