NATIONAL SAFE WORK MONTH

CCF SA’s commitment to help build a safe and healthy workplace

During the month of October Civil Contractors Federation SA celebrated National Safe Work Month.

Each week focused on a different area of WHS to engage businesses, employers, and workers across Australia to commit to building a safe and healthy workplace for all Australians.

This year’s National Safe Work Month theme was ‘Know Safety, Work Safely’, which was designed to spotlight a range of WHS topics including injury and illness at work, as well as psychological health and managing work health and safety, to create a safe and healthy workplace for all. CCF SA kickstarted the month by aligning with Return to Work SA and SafeWork SA to deliver a free workshop for our members. It covered topics such as mental health, managing WHS risk and preventing harm, injuries at work, and a safe and healthy workplace for all. It also covered Return to Work legislative requirement for employers. For example, businesses with 30 or more employees hired for a period of more than 3 months are required to have a Return to Work Coordinator based in South Australia. This is a service CCF SA can assist you with. For more information on how we can assist you with your Return to Work requirement, please contact Michelle Taylor at mtaylor@ccfsa.com.au or on 0485 883 545.

The feedback from the attendees was the workshop was informative and interesting.
