Business Program
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
ERGONOMICS AND SAFETY
• Ergonomic evaluation of your workplace and specific requirements of employees
• Heavy lifting/manual handling techniques
• Injury prevention in collaboration with NNWT
• Job Demand Analysis to comply with Safe Work Australia requirements for a physically healthy workplace
WHS COMPLIANCE
Integrating health and safety practices into your workplace is not only a proactive approach to employee welfare but also a strategic alignment with Australia's Work Health and Safety (WHS) regulations. The WHS Act 2011 mandates that employers provide a safe and healthy work environment, encompassing both physical and psychological health. This includes identifying and managing risks, providing appropriate training, and ensuring effective consultation with employees.
Government procurement guidelines and union negotiations increasingly emphasise the importance of workplace health and safety. By adopting a comprehensive health and safety program, your company demonstrates a commitment to compliance with Safe Work Australia standards, enhancing your eligibility for government contracts and fostering positive industrial relations.
