October is Safe Work Month

3/10/2019

 
Safety starts with you this Safe Work Month

Today marks the beginning of national Safe Work Month – a timely reminder that no matter what you do, safety starts with you. There are plenty of ways to get involved. Start a safety conversation in your workplace today by using the free tools now available on our Safe Work Month web page.
Everyone deserves a safe workplace
We want to ensure all workers come home safely, however this month we’re shining a light on two distinct harm areas – falls from heights and exposure to silica dust.

Falls from heights is the leading cause of workplace fatalities, particularly on construction sites and in the manufacturing and transport sectors.

If you work with manufactured stone, bricks, concrete or rock; it’s also possible that without the right controls you could be at risk of being exposed to silica dust.

Use our free resources to start a safety conversation

Do you need help with starting a safety conversation in your workplace during Safe Work Month?

The Easy to do WHS Toolkit is a great place to start. It helps you rate your workplace safety and provides information on how to improve.

You can also come to one of our events to help you with tips and advice, or download our free posters, videos and other tools to share in your workplace.

Safe Work Australia also has a suite of information to help you become a safety champion.

Join our online community
Show us how your workplace is getting involved in Safe Work Month by posting online. Tag our account and use the hashtag #safeworkmonth, and keep an eye on our Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn.

We’re proud to announce our 2019 SafeWork Awards finalists during Safe Work Month.
