This October is National Safe Work Month and is dedicated to reminding employers and workers across Australia of their commitment to creating safe and healthy workplaces.
This year, all workplaces are encouraged to prioritise safety: every job, every day.
Here at NatRoad, we want every person to return home safely from their job every day. We encourage you to proactively manage the Workplace Health and Safety risks in your business so you can protect your workers.
Here are some ideas to take up this month:
- Hold toolbox talks, a BBQ or a morning/afternoon tea with your workers that focuses on safety in your business.
- Review your risk assessments to make sure they are up to date and capture both the physical and psychosocial risks in your business. If you haven’t done a risk assessment and you aren’t sure how to do one, reach out to us and we can help you get started.
- Attend an event that has been organised by your State/Territory WHS regulator.
