Managing and Maintaining Safety for Remote or Hybrid Work Plans.

Work, Health and Safety is an integral part of good management and can help to build staff morale and improve performance and productivity.

Workplace safety is a critical issue on the job and one that is mandated in the laws, rules, regulations, standards and codes of Australian workplaces.

As a manager, supervisor or team leader, you have a legally mandated duty of care to your employees. This means you are responsible for their ongoing health and safety in the workplace, whether this workplace is in the office, on the job or, in a remote or home location.

Workplace Health and Safety – A Guide for Management, looks at management’s role in ensuring and maintaining a safe and healthy workplace. It will provide managers with the necessary knowledge to participate effectively in work health and safety matters at their workplace and ensure they have a sound knowledge of WHS legislation including roles and responsibilities.

The course covers the common areas of workplace safety including office safety for the hybrid work environment, workplace hazards, and mental and emotional health. Participants will learn preventative measures to help create a safer work environment and will also deal with mental health issues (particularly coming out of the COVID environment), workplace violence, health and wellness initiatives, and drug free workplaces.

Finally, participants will also learn the ins and outs of conducting a routine inspection, filing reports, and the importance of creating a workplace health and safety committee.
