In this week’s episode, Marieta Yordanova, Asahi's International Group Health and Safety Director, shares her invaluable insights gained over 24 years in the industry.
Marieta underscores the fundamental human right to safety at work and emphasises the importance of transparency and collaboration between organisations to enhance safety standards.
Her journey from food engineering to a leadership role in health and safety reveals her passion for systematic processes and people-centred approaches. Through heartfelt storytelling and a deep understanding of the human elements involved in safety, Marieta advocates for engaging people genuinely to foster a culture of safety that extends beyond compliance to touch hearts and minds.
Marieta discusses the critical role of leadership in embedding safety within organisational culture, emphasising that safety cannot be isolated but must be intertwined with productivity, quality, and overall operational efficiency. She elaborates on the importance of modernising safety practices through technology and digitalisation to attract younger generations and streamline safety processes. Moreover, Marieta's reflections on involving and listening to employees highlight a collaborative effort to identify and address safety concerns, making safety a shared responsibility. Her vision for the future focuses on celebrating successes and fostering an environment where safety measures are not imposed but embraced by all, making a conscious effort to involve the shop floor in creative solutions and initiatives in relation to Safety, creating a safer and more cohesive workplace.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
