  Decoding: How AI is Hacking Human Emotion

  May 30, 202619 minS0

  <p>This episode explores the intersection of <b>affective science</b>,<b> technology</b>, and <b>artificial intelligence</b> in the pursuit of automated <b>emotion and stress recognition</b>. Academic institutions and commercial entities are developing systems that utilize <b>physiological signals</b>—such as heart rate, skin conductivity, and vocal biomarkers—to objectively monitor mental health. While companies like <b>Affectiva</b> and <b>Sonde Health</b> apply these innovations to media analytics and workforce well-being, researchers emphasize the importance of <b>machine learning</b> to interpret complex human behaviors. However, recent studies also warn of a <b>"bond...

  Is Well-Being an EHS thing? - The Rise of Whole-Person Safety

  Nov 8, 202515 minS0

  <p>For decades, organizations have treated safety and well-being as separate domains — one owned by Operations, the other by HR. But people don’t live in silos. They bring their fatigue, emotions, and life challenges to work every day — and when those human factors go unmanaged, the cost is real.<br/><br/>In this episode, the Risk Hackers team explores the groundbreaking insight paper, “Whole-Person Safety: the Next Frontier of EHS.”<br/>We discuss how traditional corporate structures overlook the human-state risks that drive both safety incidents and performance breakdowns — and how forward-thinking companies are proving that integrating well-being into EHS delivers...

  Psychological Safety as a Layer of Protection

  Nov 1, 202514 minS0

  <p>In this episode, we talk about <b>psychological safety as a core part of risk prevention</b>. We look at how early signals of concern often show up as small comments, gut feelings, or subtle observations—and how easily those signals can be lost if the environment discourages voice.</p><p>We also discuss <b>micro-practices</b>—simple habits that leaders and teams can use every day to make speaking up feel normal rather than exceptional. And we explore structured methods like the <b>Six Thinking Hats</b>, which help teams hear different perspectives without judgment, defensiveness, or conflict.</p><p...
