Safe Work Australia Month – October 2014
Workplace health and safety obligations apply to everyone involved in a business. Ensure you meet your obligations by familiarising yourself with the laws and following them.
Safe Work Australia Month (safety month) is on now! Held around Australia throughout the month of October, safety month encourages people to get involved in and concentrate on safety in their workplace to reduce death, injury and disease. This year’s theme is Work safe. Home safe which reminds us that the most important reason for making our workplace safe, is not at work at all. Join thousands of workplaces around Australia who will be taking part in safety month to improve their health, safety and wellbeing.
If you don’t meet your workplace health and safety obligations, you are putting people’s health and even their lives at risk. You are also breaking the law and you may face penalties or prosecution
