Our newest Special Interest Group covers all things Occupation Health and Safety. Occupational Health and Safety professionals in Local Government are invited to join our newest OHS Special Interest Group.
Managers, Coordinators, Advisor and Officers working on OHS will have the opportunity to come together to discuss the latest trends and developments, share problems, showcase successes and network.
The primary functions of the Special Interest Group would be to:
Act as a forum to discuss best practice initiatives in areas such as OHS system applications, risk assessments, training programs, policy and guideline development, OHS Committees
Share information and ideas on OHS programs used to promote safety in the workplace – what works, what doesn’t
Act as a central group for queries in Local Government regarding Worksafe programs or other industry body announcements
Marie Smith, Occupational Health and Safety Advisor at Whitehorse City Council is the Convenor of the new Special Interest Group. She believes it will play a vital role in allowing people working in these areas to come together and share ideas and common problems.
Emerging issues such as Occupational Violence and the use of chemicals in public spaces are hot topics which a forum such as the OHS Special Interest Group can openly discuss and share new ways of working.
96 active members in the SIG Network
Please note that this Special Interest Group is a closed group, open only to employees of a Victorian Council with a LGPro Council Subscription.
This Special Interest Group is supported by an online community. We believe that accessing knowledge from individuals who work in a similar environment is invaluable and should never be underestimated. Our communities are only for people working in Local Government and there are many benefits to participating in them. They are a great way to keep in touch in between meetings, by asking your fellow colleagues questions and sharing resources. You can also see who else is involved and get in touch with them quickly. Agendas, minutes, presentations and other resources will also be posted on the online community.
