October is National Safe Work Month, an opportunity for all businesses to raise awareness and encourage discussion about work health and safety.

No matter the industry or type of work, working safely by identifying and managing risks and their impacts must be a core part of your business. 

Get involved

Plan a SafeTea chat with colleagues

A simple way to get involved is by hosting a SafeTea chat at your workplace. Grab a cuppa, gather your colleagues and start an important conversation about health and safety at work.

If tea isn’t your thing, you can also use resources from Safe Work Australia to plan a SafeTradie talk or a SafeTeams virtual catch up.

Share resources in your workplace

You can download a free campaign kit from Safe Work Australia to promote National Safe Work Month in your workplace.

There are resources tailored to different workplaces and industries, including posters, email banners and video call backgrounds.
