The Health of Your Workforce Is the Health of Your Business
Even in seemingly low-risk environments, workplace injuries, illnesses, stress and burnout are affecting thousands of Australians.
Joint/muscle injuries, and musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases, collectively accounted for almost 70,000 claims between 2022-23 (SafeWork Australia). Work-related mental injuries, meanwhile, are on the rise, representing 18% of all new Work Cover claims between 2023-24 (up from 16% in 2022-23, according to WorkSafe Victoria).
The cost of inaction is high, estimated to cost our economy over $61.8 billion annually!
Government is stepping up its response, introducing new regulations, ramping up workplace inspections and imposing hefty penalties for non-compliance.
To assist employers with strategies to improve the wellbeing of workers and achieve compliance, Workplace Health & Safety Show is partnering with the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society of Australia.
