#13: The real test is, 'Can we change other people's minds about this?'

Podcast series host Jill James connects with filmmaker Dave DeSario, an unlikely workplace safety champion and outspoken reform advocate.  Dave, a lifelong temp worker, is founder of the Alliance for the American Temporary Workforce. His 2015 film A Day’s Work—a must-see for any occupational safety and health leader—spotlights the plague of serious injuries and workplace fatalities (SIFs) amongst the fast-growing temporary labor force. You’ll learn about the safety nuances and pitfalls of non-traditional employee-employer relationships, the correlation between workers’ compensation systems and increase in temp staffing nationwide, and why this population of workers is more at-risk than your traditional employee population. This episode will connect you with resources to ensure you’re in-step with OSHA’s guidelines for temp worker safety, and open your eyes to an unseen safety epidemic that may hit close to home.
