Workplace Health & Safety:

The objective of the WH&S Act 2011, is to prevent a person's death, injury or illness caused by a workplace, by a relevant workplace area, by work activities, or by plant or substances for use at a workplace. To meet this objective, exposure to the risk of death, injury or illness must be prevented or minimised. To achieve this, the Act establishes a framework by imposing WH&S obligations on certain persons who may affect the health and safety of others. College Staff are accountable for the day to day control of their respective operations. In addition to the mandatory duties imposed by the statutory requirements, staff have specific duties within the Work Health and Safety Plan (see PLC intranet). Management has the major responsibility for establishing safety policies and procedures however, most of what is planned and established must reach the staff on the job by way of supervisors and staff who are in frequent and close association with workers and students.

Setting the example for all workers and students as required to follow and implement the College Workplace Health Safety Policies and Procedures as detailed on Staff Intranet;
Preparing standard operating procedures to control the operations of their work area as part of the Teachers Lesson Plan and/or work procedures for other work areas for nonteaching staff;
