"Human Capital Sounds Very Inhuman" | Kathy Seabrook at SOTE 2026

Scott Cuthbert sits down with Kathy Seabrook, CEO and founder of Global Solutions Inc., at Safety on the EDGE 2026. The conversation digs into how our industry is rethinking the value of people at work. In this short interview, Kathy reframes what "human capital" actually means and points at where the real lever for change sits. ▪️ Kathy explains why the language of "human capital" misses the point. People bring discretionary energy, innovation, productivity, and efficiencies to work. Safety, health, and well-being are part of that bigger value, not separate from it. ▪️ She makes the case for putting that value on the balance sheet. When organizations can see and monetize what people actually contribute, executive decision-making changes. That's where the needle moves. ▪️ Kathy talks about why events like Safety on the EDGE matter. Safety and health is not proprietary. The best people in the field share openly, and everyone learns from each other. If you lead safety, sit in EHS, or care about how people get valued at work, this one is worth three minutes of your day. 🎟️ Want more conversations like this one?
