What is Workplace Health and Safety?
Work Health and Safety is a legal framework designed to protect people’s safety, physical and mental health, and general welfare in workplaces across Australia.
It’s primarily designed to protect employees and workers (including contractors, subcontractors and apprentices), but that’s not all. WHS laws also protect customers, volunteers, members of the general public, and anyone else who might be affected by issues at a place of work.
Workplace Health and Safety legislation covers a wide range of issues, including but not limited to:
- emergency plans and procedures
- working conditions such as heat, height, confined spaces or prolonged sitting or standing
- managing dangers like hazardous chemicals, carcinogens or asbestos
- mitigating slips, trips and falls
- drug and alcohol policies
- bullying and harassment policies
More than 24,000 business owners trust Employsure's expert advice.
