GENERAL
Formerly a Research Associate with the School, she is now a Senior Lecturer (part-time ). Her research interests include:

• occupational health and safety management systems (OHS MS);
• methods by which organisations can self assess their activities.

Her PhD project investigated the content of contemporary organisational occupational health and safety management systems, ways in which they can be assessed, and the ways in which OHS MS can be improved.
