Creating a safe and healthy workplace

A safe and healthy workplace is one where employers and employees work together to support and promote health and safety at work.


There is compelling evidence that participating in good work has benefits for people's health and wellbeing.

Acting early is critical to the recovery process. The earlier you notice an employee is experiencing potential signs of ill health or injury, the sooner you can take steps to help them.

A workplace health and safety management system can minimise the risk of injury and illness from workplace operations.

Good work is good for you. The design of our work affects the way we feel and can influence our motivation, engagement and stress levels at work.

Workplaces are key to keeping people of all ages employed, healthy and productive.
