In this episode of the Health and Safety Hub, Kevin Chambers talks with Scott Jacobs, Chief Customer Officer at Habit Health, about the growing connection between workplace health, safety and productivity.
Drawing on Habit Health’s experience supporting businesses across New Zealand, Scott discusses injury management, mental wellbeing, occupational health, and why early intervention can make a significant difference to recovery and return-to-work outcomes.
The conversation also explores the challenges of an ageing workforce, changing employee expectations around wellbeing, and the practical steps employers can take to support healthier, safer and more productive workplaces
