National Safe Work Month Week 3: Safe Work Australia focuses on key aspects of risk management

During the third week of National Safe Work Month, Safe Work Australia explores the essential principles of risk management, which is a crucial aspect of the WHS fundamentals discussed in the first week.

This week, Safe Work Australia will examine the necessary steps for conducting a WHS risk assessment and the factors to be taken into account at each stage.

It is essential to keep in mind that hazards, whether physical or psychological, are both subject to the same risk assessment process, according to Safe Work Australia.

“By doing risk management well, genuinely consulting, and by training and supporting your workers (all part of the WHS fundamentals), you are ensuring a healthy and safe environment for everyone,” says Safe Work Australia.
