Hazardous work: managing the risks of manual tasks, noise and confined spaces

Hazardous work remains one of the most common causes of serious injury in Australian workplaces. Manual tasks, noise and confined spaces carry significant legal, financial and operational risks for employers. Businesses that fail to properly manage these risks can face serious regulatory action and workers’ compensation claims.

Join Gemma Sharp and William Head for a practical session that will provide you with the tools to identify, assess and control these risks in your workplace, along with guidance on meeting your legal obligations.

Some of the topics this session will cover include:

  • statistics regarding the effects of hazardous work on Australian workplaces

  • your legal obligations under work health and safety laws and relevant codes of practice

  • cases providing practical insights on liability and enforcement

  • practical tips on implementing controls to manage the risks associated with hazardous work.

This online session will give you practical strategies for managing this important area of workplace safety.

The webinar will be recorded, and a link to the recording circulated to all registrants afterwards.
