Understanding your responsibilities as an employer to protect worker health starts with understanding the factors in your organisation that have the potential to cause harm. Automation of routine tasks, technological advancements, and ongoing organisational change have transformed the nature of work. Performing complex and cognitively demanding tasks now represents the greatest percent of skill required by Australian employees.

This webinar will help you identify psychosocial factors that have the potential to cause harm to worker health in your organisation. You will learn how to manage the risk to reduce the potential for these hazards to occur, and if they do occur how to act appropriately to minimise the likelihood of harm.

There are many benefits to implementing evidence based systems for creating a psychologically safe and healthy work environment. This includes better individual worker wellbeing and organisational productivity outcomes, while also achieving your due diligence to provide a safe working environment.

Water damage and subsequent mould growth can have lasting impacts to not only the health of occupants but also on the building structure itself, and these risks are amplified when corrective actions are delayed or if the source of the problem remains undiscovered for months or longer.

It is unfortunately too common for mould remediation projects to run over time or expand to include costly additional site attendances and further works. Our panel of Indoor Environmental Professionals (IEP) draws from decades of industry experience to identify the key factors common to successful remediation projects, and outline how an IEP can assist in ensuring remediation is successful.

This discussion covers the entire project lifecycle, including:

• Initial investigations and scoping

A game-changer in critical risk management

myosh are very excited to present the game changing concept of The Digital Bowtie together with our Critical Control Management module and the Smart Inspection process.

Key takeaways:

• Learn how myosh CCM drives integrated action when controls are compromised

Are you celebrating success?

This webinar will outline how to simply report critical controls, data visualisation options and storytelling. A practical case study will also be provided on CCM performance reporting.

Key takeaways:

• Quality vs Quantity metrics

This webinar provides an economic outlook of labour and materials, will provide Health and Safety Index benchmark results, factors impacting on poor contractor and supplier performance.

Often organisations take a one-size-fits-all approach to managing risks when procuring goods and services. This often leads to complexities, clutter, non-compliance, and ineffective cultures. Requirements vary based on supplier maturity, procurement categories, economic trends and activities performed.

We will explore current procurement trends impacting goods and services, including commercial risks, health and safety practices and behaviours.

Key takeaways:

• Economic outlook and procurement risks

This presentation examines how neurotransmitters and neural pathways impact health, safety choices, mental wellbeing and performance in all aspects of our lives. We also examine COVID impacts such as ‘work from home’ and look at profiles that are better suited or less suited to working from home.

Health By Design (HBD) have affiliations with Swinburne University’s school of psychology, the University of Sussex centre for innovation and Robertson Brain Health. HBD provide health, safety & human performance programs globally.

The definition issues for employees and the COVID-19 vaccine is whether employers can enforce mandatory vaccinations –No Jab No Job?

With the Country and individual states opening up, employers need to know their legal obligations. Brian Jackson (Employment Lawyer from Moray & Agnew Lawyers) will present on this important topic so that employers know how to proceed and avoid claims and HR related risks.

Can you sleep at night, knowing your critical controls are effective?

This webinar will outline different types of critical control assurance activity. A practical case study will also be shown on how to provide stakeholders with comfort that critical controls are effective.

Key takeaways:

• Verifying critical control effectiveness

Last month Forge Works released the Safety of Work Survey as part of a diagnostic process for improving the safety of work. This webinar will discuss how this can be used as a replacement for existing safety climate and safety culture perception surveys. This evidenced based approach takes the contemporary safety theories of High Reliability Organisations (HRO), Resilience Engineering, Safety II, Safety Differently and Human and Organisational Performance and operationalises it in a way for organisations to understand their capacity for managing the safety of work.

In addition the survey also understands how your organisation believes safety should be managed. This is critical insight for any improvement and change process. Come along to understand the science and the practice of the latest safety thinking and research and how you can apply it in your organisation.

What does success look like?

This webinar will outline options for setting critical control performance standards. A practical case study will also be provided on setting expectations for assurance activity and attributes of effective critical controls.

Key takeaways:

• Critical control performance standard options
