Episode 025: Alcohol, Health and Safety with Mark Glover Professional Drinkers from Choose Sunrise

In this episode, we're joined by Mark Glover, editor of SHP Online, diving into the intersection of alcohol culture and health and safety in the workplace.

 

Mark shares his journey into health and safety journalism, revealing personal insights into alcohol addiction within his family. We explore the changing landscape of workplace drinking, from traditional after-work pints to the rise of non-alcoholic options.

 

Reflecting on our experiences, we discuss the challenges in male-dominated industries like construction, where drinking norms can be intense. We touch on the impact of cultural shifts, the rise of non-alcoholic beer, and how flexi-drinking is reshaping habits.

 

The conversation delves into the evolving workplace culture and the potential impact of alcohol-free options on younger generations. This really was an engaging chat on navigating a thoughtful and alcohol-safe workplace. I hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed the conversation!
