In this episode of The Health and Safety Hub, Kevin Chambers sits down with Mauro Barsi, Head of Legal at the EMA, to unpack the legal and practical implications of the landmark Whakaari White Island appeal case earlier this year.
Together, Kevin and Mauro explore a critical question: what are the health and safety obligations of landowners, landlords, and those who are “upstream” from a workplace?
The conversation also draws real-world parallels to common scenarios, such as leasing buildings, owning farmland, or providing shared infrastructure, helping listeners understand where their own responsibilities may begin and end.
If you need to clarify what your H&S responsibilities are, contact the EMA Legal Team or call the EMA AdviceLine for expert guidance on 0800 300 362.
