The OH&S Committee continued to consolidate OH&S issues within the Canberra and state offices.
During 2008–09 we implemented an OH&S Framework and supporting policies and procedures to underpin OH&S duty of care to ensure the health, safety and welfare of our employees while they are at work.
The following procedures have also been established to support health and safety management arrangements:
- Working Outdoors Procedure
- Electrical Inspection and Testing Procedure
- Managing Driver Fatigue Procedure
- OH&S Incident Log Procedure
- Health and Safety Representative Training Procedure
- Health and Safety Committee Meeting Procedure
- Health and Safety Selection Procedure
- OH&S Internal Investigation Procedure.
OH&S initiatives during the year included:
- a review and assessment of our offices, resulting in an upgrade of facilities in the Melbourne and Sydney Offices and an increased awareness of OH&S requirements in the Canberra Office
- inclusion of OH&S as a standing item on the Senior Management Committee agenda
- further development of the OH&S component of our learning and development program to include compulsory OH&S essentials training for managers/supervisors and for non-management staff
- an increase in the number of paid health and safety representatives (by two) and provision of the necessary training
- an offer of flu vaccinations for ongoing and non-ongoing staff (as in the past) and, for the first time, an extension of the offer to casual staff
- development of a workplace plan to deal with the anticipated impact of H1N1 Influenza 09.
OH&S risk has continued to be at a low level due to our systematic approach to the management of OH&S plans, actions and procedures. During 2008–09, no incidents were reported to Comcare under section 68 of the Occupational Health and Safety Act 1991.
