Content Ambassadors and Health and Safety Experts

HSE Network is about connecting experts in health and safety with those who are looking to learn more about the profession. With our partners at the HSE Global Series, we work alongside key minds not only in health and safety but also in other spheres. Some of the notable members of our advisory board include: Sir Clive Woodward, Erik Hollnagel, Ron Gantt, Ruth Denyer, and John Green.

Health and Safety Advisory Members

Our Content Ambassadors also form part of the HSE Global Series & Association Partners and have been selected by HSE Network to support the direction of our content, provide us with industry-leading insights, and to provide an ear to the ground on what the community wants and needs. Our content providers give you the content and thought leadership to develop your skillset and perform within your health and safety job role.

The HSE Network sources experts from a variety of different fields with knowledge drawn from academic, sporting, and professional backgrounds. The health and safety content ambassadors also come from a variety of industries, with members from construction, oil and gas, and the governing bodies like IOSH and NEBOSH.

Harriet Lee
HS Compliance Consultant
iCor

Harriet Lee holds an LLB (Hons) in Law and is particularly interested in the legislation that protects people and the planet. She is an Environmental, Health & Safety Compliance Consultant at iCOR, an EHS legal compliance solution that helps organisations stay on top of their EHS legal obligations. Instead of spreadsheets or quarterly legal subscriptions, iCOR gives organisations a bespoke legal register tailored to their specific operations, which is updated every month by in-house EHS specialists.

Users complete a simple self-audit questionnaire to see which regulations apply to them and where they stand with compliance. Everything organisations need (their obligations, their status of conformity, action planning, and compliance evidence) lives in one place, enabling them to manage their compliance in less time, with less stress, and without a spreadsheet in sight.
