When your work starts to impact your mental health, it can cause enormous problems.
Sadly, for many Australians, this is an all too familiar experience.
ACTU Assistant Secretary, Liam O’Brien, is part of a coalition of experts leading the charge to change Work, Health and Safety laws across Australia to protect the mental health of all workers.
Liam joins Francis and Sally to talk about why mental health matters, and what needs to change.
