Cathy Barrett Brinson
With over 20 years of experience in the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) profession, Cathy is a passionate advocate for creating safer, healthier, and more supportive workplaces. Specializing in psychological health and safety, Cathy has dedicated the last 10 years of her career to helping organizations understand the critical connection between mental well-being, organizational culture, and overall performance. A lifelong learner, Cathy continually seeks out new knowledge and approaches to enhance workplace health and safety—whether through emerging research, evolving legislation, or innovative best practices. Cathy hopes to inspire others to see safety not just as compliance, but as a pathway to thriving teams and sustainable success. When not championing mental health at work, she can often be found enjoying the outdoors with her husband and dogs, finding balance and inspiration in nature.
