Work-Related Road Traffic Fatalities

Anne Drummond (RGN, RM, HDipSHWW, MSc, PhD, CFIOSH, FFOM (Hon) RCPI) qualified as a nurse and midwife, and had a career in general nursing before developing an interest in Occupational Safety and Health (OSH).  In 1995 she commenced work in University College Dublin (UCD) in the Centre for Safety and Health at Work (CSHW), where she was responsible for academic management and development of the Centre’s OSH Education Programme.  She was later appointed to an academic position and is currently Director of the Centre, and Professor and UCD Head of Subject in Occupational Safety and Health.  She has a deep interest in the pedagogy of teaching and learning and was School Associate Dean for Teaching and Learning for many years.  She has received UCD teaching awards (2009 and 2016), a national teaching award nomination (2009), a national Teaching Expert award, (2015) and national special category winner award (2015).  She is programme coordinator for a blended online Certificate (undergraduate) and the UCD MSc in OSH, and over 8,000 students have completed courses under her governance.  She is very involved in committee work at University and national level.
Her research work has included public health and occupational safety and health projects.  Her OSH research interests include adult education in the context of OSH education; health and wellbeing at work; and areas where national-level data sources are less than optimum, such as the national systems for monitoring of work-related and occupational illnesses, and of work-related road traffic fatalities.

Jean Christophe Le Coze

Safety Research: Evolution, Challenges and New Directions

Jean Christophe Le Coze is a safety researcher with an interdisciplinary background, including in engineering and the social sciences. He works at INERIS, the French national institute for environmental safety. His activities combine ethnographic studies and action research programmes in various safety-critical systems, with an empirical, theoretical, historical and epistemological orientation. Outcomes of his research have been regularly published in the past 10 years in articles, books and special issues of journals. Jean-Christophe has recently hosted the “Paris Workshop” on “New Directions in Safety Research”, putting together a network of active researchers in the field of safety pointing to new issues to be addressed. Topics such as globalisation, critical infrastructure, digitilisation or systemic risks have indeed shaped new operating constraints of high-risk systems and any organisations, with implications for safety.
