Occupational safety was built to protect workers. Somewhere along the way, it became a business.

In The Old Hacker Who Cracked the Safety Code, a veteran safety professional examines modern workplace safety through the lens of systems thinking-revealing how well-intentioned regulations, insurance structures, metrics, and third-party compliance programs often produce unintended and sometimes harmful outcomes.

Drawing on real-world experience across fleet management, skilled trades, OSHA compliance, workers' compensation, and contractor oversight, this book exposes:

  • Why self-reported safety metrics are deeply flawed
  • How insurance and compliance incentives distort injury reporting
  • The hidden costs of zero-incident cultures
  • Why frontline workers often suffer under successful safety programs
  • How systems designed to reduce risk sometimes amplify it
This is not an anti-safety manifesto. It is a call for honesty, accountability, and reform-written for those who care more about people than metrics.
