Occupational health and safety

Your OH&S obligations
Under OH&S legislation you have legal obligations to ensure the health and safety of everyone in your workplace.

OH&S Acts, Regulations and Codes of Practice
There are OH&S Acts, regulations and codes of practice that employers need to abide by.

Getting started with OH&S
It's better to deal with safety issues before they become a problem - a planned approach to safety is essential for your business.

Accidents and injuries
Workplace injuries can have a big impact on your business. An injured worker is entitled to make a workers compensation claim where the injury occurs during the course of their employment.

Workers compensation requirements
Occupational health and safety laws require that injured workers have access to first aid, fair workers compensation and return to work rehabilitation.
