S10: Special-Release Bonus: How Far Would You Go For a Workmate? Part 1

About this episode

This episode explores the complex issues surrounding organ donation and the values we owe each other at work and in life.

S10: Special-Release Bonus: How Far Would You Go For a Workmate? Part 1 WARNING: This episode discusses the difficult journey of organ donation, which may confront some listeners – we urge listener discretion before tuning in to this special three-part series. In this deeply personal and provocative three-part special, Sara, Trajce, and Alan traverse beyond the usual boundaries of work dynamics leading to work health and safety case law. They enter the territory in which values, courage, relationships, healthcare institutions, and government frameworks intersect in messy fashion. This series invites listeners to reflect: What do we owe one another at work and in life? How do organisations respond when employees make values-based decisions that don’t fit neat policy boxes? And how far would you go for a workmate? If this series prompts questions or curiosity about organ donation, we strongly encourage you to visit DonateLife and speak with your state or territory kidney transplant centre.
