WorkSafe takes a systems-based approach to the prevention of inappropriate workplace behaviours such as bullying, harassment including sexual harassment and workplace violence/aggression including sexual assault.

Health monitoring is the monitoring of a person’s health for the purpose of identifying changes in the person’s health status resulting from exposure to a hazardous chemical.

Health monitoring enables the registered medical practitioner (RMP) to identify any potential adverse effect on health from exposure to a hazardous chemical in the workplace. Early identification enables early intervention (e.g. hygiene and safe work practices, removal from further exposure, remedial action by the workplace) to prevent serious harm to the worker. 

The Work Health and Safety Excellence Awards were held at Optus Stadium on 2 October 2019.

Sixty nine submissions were received with 33 companies recognised as finalists. Eight companies were recognised with a winner’s trophy and 10 companies received a certificate of merit.
