Work Health and Safety

Used be called “Occupational Health and Safety” Now called “Work Health and Safety”

Recent changes to legislation Changes made in 2012 to harmonise state and territory laws nationwide Before 2012 we had inconsistent standards which created confusion for workers and industry

You must be aware of NT Work Safe as a resource NT WorkSafe is the administrative and regulatory arm of the Northern Territory Work Health Authority, the statutory body established under the Workplace Health and Safety Act 2011.

NT Work Safe responsible for … Workplace health and safety Dangerous goods Electrical safety Rehabilitation and workers compensation

You must be aware of Safe Work Australia as a resource “Safe Work Australia leads the development of national policy to improve work health and safety and workers’ compensation arrangements across Australia”

To whom do you report? If you find hazards in this lab then report them to your lecturer. In the workplace you need to identify the responsible person yourself. Contact your supervisor if you do not know.
