During this session, Debra provides some insights into how to use self-coaching as a tool for building resilience and taking care of the self. Often in a world full of busyness, we forget to take care of ourselves. In fact, not only do we not take care of ourselves, but we also become our harshest critic, often focussing on what we haven’t done, should’ve done and discounting how amazing we truly are.

This session provides some insights into the importance of self-coaching and some simple how-to tips for everyday implementation.

The first principle of safety differently is engaging people as a solution to harness, rather than a problem to control. Human-centred design is built upon this principle. For too long safety has focused on creating controls that constrain people rather than focusing on harnessing the knowledge of those that do the work.

Stanford University Design Center has crafted the ideas of user experience and human-centred design to solve intractable problems their source. This webinar introduces you to the concepts of user experience and human-centred design and how to harness them for operational safety excellence.

Culture and leadership go hand in hand, especially when it comes to investing in safety. But the reality is that most safety leaders haven’t been taught the fundamental soft skills needed to lead effectively. And the implications for safety performance, compliance and reporting are concerning.

So, what does strong and effective safety leadership look like?

Explore the eight fundamental competencies required for strong safety leadership and where to focus for the greatest return on investment.

Listen to Andy Holmes as he discusses the core elements of ISO45001 and how businesses are managing the transition.

Published in March 2018, ISO 45001 became the first global standard of its kind, giving organisations a universally accepted framework for improving employee health and safety, reducing workplace risks, and creating healthier, safer working conditions.

ISO 45001 has been prepared using “High-Level Structure”. This is intended to enhance alignment among ISO’s management system standards, and to facilitate the implementation for organisations that need to meet the requirements of several standards simultaneously, for example, the already released ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015

With its ‘top-down’ philosophy, ISO 45001 also requires management and leadership to take greater responsibility for health and safety issues.

Tens of thousands of businesses around the globe are already certified, and it is expected that over 500,000 organisations will take up the standard internationally over the next decade. Join Andy Holmes as he discusses the transition to ISO 45001.

Brian Jackson (Senior Lawyer) Moray & Agnew presents an urgent webinar on managing the economic and health & safety implications of the COVID-19 crisis on your workplace including:

• How best to implement, and enforce necessary protocols to ensure the safety and wellbeing of your employees, with the least disruption and with effective compliance.

All over the world, companies in a range of industries are beginning to benefit from the use of Learning Teams. What are Learning Teams and why are they so effective?

This session, using scenario-based learning, explores and demonstrates:

• What operational learning can look like

This session will equip you with the skills to:

• Understand the fundamentals of Operational Learning

Commonly used incident classification methodologies have resulted in adverse consequences, including over classification, poor investigation outcomes, unnecessary investigations and unsustainable workloads for those responsible for facilitating the investigation.

Listen in to Mark Alston as he discusses a practical alternative solution, grounded by statute, that will assist in improving investigation outcomes and combat the negative impact on an organisations culture from the misuse of injury metrics.

We find ourselves in unprecedented times. The uncertainty created by current events, including COVID-19, has led to increased stress, distraction and anxiety in the workplace. For some, this is in addition to the recent devastations of drought, fire and flood. But what happens when workers find their stress compounding and fail to recognise it?

As a leader, it’s important to recognise when a worker may need to access support. This webinar will provide a framework to help leaders understand the difference between a team member thriving and surviving—and if they are surviving, whether they’re simply going through a bad patch or if they require extra support to manage a mental health issue or illness.

Session outcomes:

• Understand a framework to recognise the difference between team members who thrive or survive during stress and crisis

COVID-19 has presented a series of challenges to our health, safety and business continuity. Whilst many of the recommendations for combatting this novel coronavirus are still being debated, the principles underpinning good workplace hygiene will still mitigate much of the risk, and provide a framework for managing this outbreak, and future pandemics.

This webinar covers what we know about COVID-19, how long it persists in the environment, transmission, PPE, and disinfection, and touches on wider principles which can be used to rapidly respond to future emergency situations.

Examples of best practice being employed in companies across Australia in a variety of industries are also shared.
