Safe Work Australia’s National Safe Work Month 2023 kicks off its second week, with the celebration now focused on protecting workers’ mental health.

This National Safe Work Month, organisations and individuals are encouraged to put work health and safety front and centre through the theme for everyone’s safety, work safely. 

Safe Work Australia has released the 2023 report titled, 'Key Work Health and Safety Statistics Australia,' providing an overview of work health and safety in the country. 

Artificial intelligence and wearable technology can help companies better understand the risk profile of their workforce and provide bespoke injury prevention training where needed, according to a workplace safety expert. 

Marie Kinsella, CEO of the IEC Group – the organisers of the upcoming Workplace Health and Safety Show – said that with the recently released 10-year Australian Work Health and Safety (WHS) Strategy, employers should prioritise the prevention of fatalities, injuries, and illness as well as the promotion of improved mental health for workers, among other things.

Government statutory agency Safe Work Australia (SWA) has issued a new report illustrating the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on workers returning to work following an injury or illness.
