Safer Together is a member-led organisation working together to prevent harm to our frontline workers. To do this, it is important that we understand hazards at site, the harm they can cause us, and how we can control them to prevent injuries to ourselves and colleagues.
Body stressing, falls, trips and slips, and being hit by moving objects are the cause of most work-related injuries in Australia (Safe Work Australia Key Work Health and Safety Statistics Australia, 2023), and work-related mental health conditions are on the rise – with time off work for work-related mental health conditions more than four times longer than for other injuries.
In our Q2 Theme ‘Preventing Personal Injuries’ portal, we have collated resources to help our Member Companies to:
- Enhance awareness of personal hazards and the potential for personal injuries,
- Understand how your decisions affect the risk of personal injuries
Line of Fire, put simply, is 'being in harm’s way'.
Safer Together has developed a mini-portal where you can find a range of information and tools designed to reduce Line of Fire incidents, designed as a 'one stop shop' to access a range of tools designed to reduce the incidence of line of fire incidents across our industry.
