Occupational Health and Safety Presentation
Safety lessons from the top of the world
The last 900 vertical metres on Mt Everest are without doubt one of the riskiest places on the pl
anet. How does a mountaineer get home alive and in one piece?
The climbing above 8000 metres on Everest has become known as the “Death Zone” for a very good reason. The higher one goes on Everest the greater the chance of a climber not coming home. The death and injury rate on Mt Everest is high, so how do good expeditions minimise the risk?
Most people perceive that climbing Everest and Safety are diametrically opposed. The truth is very different from this perception. Zac has been to Mt Everest twice as an
Expedition Leader, and, in his highly acclaimed keynote presentation, Zac examines how mountaineers minimise risk by focusing on safety systems, safety culture, teamwork, communication and leadership.
Zac looks at the interplay between these elements that enable climbers to summit and then return safely. Zac’s insights are extraordinary and his use of stunning photos and video footage throughout the presentation keeps the audience engaged and inspired. The lessons learnt and strategies used are easily related to the workplace.
