Results and Discussion

Divided into two parts, this chapter presents the results of the observational study. The data are presented in figures to complement the Code Sheet relied on in the observational study (presented in table form). Three key themes emerged as a result of critically assessing the show. First, there was a perception that administrative and lower-wrung interventions were inconsistently applied and monitored during the season. Secondly, a culture of alcohol at work was normalised. Thirdly, psychosocial hazard awareness was either inadequate or undervalued. The findings support a cultural bias argument that perceived low-risk workplace activities and unacceptable psychosocial behaviours were tolerated. This data gave the viewer the impression The Block projected a form of dissonance which trivialised the importance of certain HSW cognitions. If this has occurred, then any conflict or inconsistency between workers’ beliefs, attitudes, or behaviours regarding health, safety, and wellbeing and what is reasonably expected of workers, at the workplace, should be addressed.
