In this week's Friday Workplace Briefing, Andrew Douglas and Kim McLagan discuss a Reckless Endangerment charge for Psychological Hazards given to the Victorian Building Authority (VBA).

The VBA has been charged with Reckless Endangerment in circumstances when it would have been more appropriate as a matter of law, fact, and policy to charge them under Industrial Manslaughter. Why have they been charged? Why not Industrial Manslaughter and what does it mean for every other organisation that has similar risks?
