Victoria’s first health and safety manslaughter prosecution

Welcome to our Health and Safety Insights Podcast Series. This podcast concerns the recent decision, R v LH Holding Management Pty Ltd & Hanna,  of the Supreme Court of Victoria dealing with what is the first prosecution of the new workplace manslaughter laws in that State and we’ll also talk about the advent of industrial manslaughter laws generally and what we might expect in other Australian jurisdictions. We are grateful to have special guests, barristers Steven Russell and Nick Read, providing their insights. We hope that the podcast is useful. Please contact us if you would like to discuss or have any queries.
