As well as discussing the importance of developing a safety culture in the workplace, the conference will provide an update on the harmonised work health and safety (WHS) legislation (currently only being implemented in certain states and territories) and its effect on the construction sector.
SafetyCon has been tailored for all stakeholders engaged in construction projects to better understand developing safety issues and this includes those in the quarry industry.
SafetyCon 2012 will:
? Examine the WHS model legislation in order to assist with a seamless transition.
? Discuss the key safety issues and challenges the industry faces.
? Explore continuous improvement opportunities for OHS management.
? Promote the importance of safety leadership for organisations striving towards developing a safety culture.
? Provide attendees with the opportunity to learn about future safety strategies alongside innovative tools and ideas.
