    HSA Work at Height Campaign Episode 3: Marian Deasy

    ⚠️ This week’s Health and Safety Authority (https://www.linkedin.com/#) podcast is one that every leader, contractor and site manager should take the time to hear. Podcast host Joan Flynn (https://www.linkedin.com/#), Senior Inspector in Construction Inspection and Policy at the HSA, speaks with Marian Deasy (https://www.linkedin.com/#) about #LiveForLorcan – a behavioural safety initiative developed by the Electric Skyline Limited (https://www.linkedin.com/#) team and inspired by the life of Lorcan Deasy. The #LiveForLorcan campaign connects safety to something far more powerful – personal responsibility, shared accountability and the reality that every procedure exists for a human reason. Through education, storytelling and visible reminders on site, it reframes safety culture around one simple principle: everyone goes home safe. This conversation lands at a critical moment. 11 people lost their lives while undertaking construction-related activities last year, up from 5  the previous year. Most of those deaths were linked to falls from height, moving plant and equipment, or being struck by falling objects. As the Health and Safety Authority (https://www.linkedin.com/#) and the Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland (https://www.linkedin.com/#), supported by the Construction Industry Federation (CIF) (https://www.linkedin.com/#) launched their 'Working at Height' 2026 campaign – facilitated by the Walls Construction Limited (https://www.linkedin.com/#) team on site in Dublin earlier this week, the  focus was clear: Working at height remains one of the most serious risks in our industry, and it is preventable. Safety culture is built through leadership, safe behaviour, peer intervention and personal commitment. Today, take time with your team. Share the campaign materials. Watch the videos. Listen to the stories of those living with life-changing injuries from falls. Listen to Marian Deasy speak about her son. Procedures matter. Systems matter. But culture determines whether they are followed. Every person who turns up on site deserves to return home safely, every day. #LiveForLorcan 🎙️ https://open.spotify.com/episode/0BHMjysw5ZqiIVyd2uuJL2?si=508eca888a044e2f  📽️ Watch the interview in full: https://youtu.be/uOzbyvnFIic You can view the full HSA: Working at Heights playlist at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5hAEpymn6vkMufB3bbgNrSiRg4e0AoOw  Further information about safety in construction: https://www.hsa.ie/your_industry/construction/

To tackle this, the Health and Safety Authority (HSA) and the Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland (HSE NI) have today launched a month-long, all-island inspection campaign. Running throughout the month of October, this joint initiative will see inspections taking place on construction sites and farms of all sizes across the island, with the goal of reducing the number of serious injuries and fatalities linked to work at height.
