2012 Workplace Safety Guide
Fulfilling their duty to provide industries across Australia with updated health and safety information each year, Pro-Visual Publishing has just released the 2012 edition of the National Guide to Public Works and Services Safety, with the intent on reducing workplace accidents and injury to those involved in the Local Government and Public Works sector.
The guide contains vastly detailed information supported by the Institute of Public Works Engineering Australia and is distributed at no cost to thousands of members of the Local Government and Public services sector across Australia.
A major focus of the guide is on the harmonisation of the Modern Work Health and Safety Act, containing information on the aims of compliance and enforcement, along with a detailed list of information for regulators on injunctions, infringement notices and prosecutions, in the event of an alleged breach of safety acts.
Other prominent topics included in the guide such as risk management in the workplace, first aid, health and safety duties of workers and traffic management plans are directed towards principal employers and contractors.
“Maintaining a constant awareness of work health and safety laws is vital for employers and employees alike in the public works and services sectors. I would like to thank all of the sponsors for their support of the 2012 National Guide to Public Works and Services Safety, who have made it possible for it to be distributed free of charge to the industry,” said John Hutchings, CEO, Pro- Visual Publishing.
Recipients of the Guide are also provided with the opportunity to enter a competition in which the best entry wins a $5000 dollar holiday voucher
