Can an FM Be Held Personally Liable? The Answer Is Yes, But... | Let's Talk Facilities w/ Kristy Keech

It starts with something small. A door handle that sticks. A defect that sat on a report for two weeks because it did not seem urgent. Kristy Keech has spent 22 years in risk and compliance watching those small things become the biggest problems an FM will ever face. In this episode of #LetsTalkFacilities, Aaron and Nick sit down with Kristy Keech to talk about one of the most confronting realities in facility management: personal liability. She unpacks what it actually means to be responsible for a site and what you can do differently to protect yourself and the people in your building. -----------#LetsTalkFacilities is a podcast from the team at Premrest, Australia's go-to for commercial floor care.

Inside University of Melbourne: Facility Tour with Andrew Moore

Most buildings are designed with an exit strategy. At the University of Melbourne, there isn't one. Aaron and Ben take the podcast on the road for their first ever site tour, walking the University of Melbourne campus with Andrew Moore, Workspace Strategy and Operations Manager for the Faculty of Engineering and IT. In this episode, they walk through what it actually looks like to manage a portfolio you can never walk away from — retrofitting buildings never designed for modern expectations, keeping 1950s spaces alive, and making decisions that have to last a generation. -------------------------- #LetsTalkFacilities is a podcast from the team at Premrest, Australia's go-to for commercial floor care.
