WorkSafe SmartMove

WorkSafe SmartMove is an online educational program for senior high school students and young people entering the workforce. This includes students on work placement, work experience, or school‑based traineeships or apprenticeships, as well as new workers. It is also suitable for young people starting casual, part‑time or seasonal jobs.
 

SmartMove features an animated character called SAMM (Spot the hazard, Assess the risk, Make the changes, and Monitor and follow up). SAMM guides young people through the SmartMove Certificate program.

The program includes general and industry‑specific modules with interactive sections that use graphic animations, gaming activities and quizzes to keep users engaged.
