With the adoption of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), many countries have begun to invest in health and safety transformation programs. In Saudi Arabia, Vision 2030 highlights the importance of health and safety as key factors in achieving sustainable development. The common factor between the UN SDGs and Saudi Vision 2030 is thus their emphasis on adopting a holistic approach to health and safety, addressing H&S issues at individual and organizational levels.

In this episode of the Anticipate podcast, Georges Faraj, Senior Health & Safety Management Consultant, is joined by Tahir Qadir, Health & Safety Service Lead, to explore the latest trends in H&S transformation and the main drivers behind H&S transformation programmes with a special focus on Saudi Arabia.
