| New Work Health and Safety legislation replaced the Occupational Health and Safety legislation on 1 January 2012. As a result, our policies and procedures will soon be reviewed to align with the new legislation. It is estimated this may take several months. If in the meantime you are unsure of your work health and safety responsibilities please contact the Workplace Health and Safety Team on ext 73651 or 79143. |
