SafeWork NSW WHS Roadmap

SafeWork NSW launched their impressive Roadmap for Work Health & Safety for NSW 2022 in August 2016. It shows how a PCBU (business, organisation, corporation, etc) can embed SafeWork’s “health and safety landscape” in their workplace.

The 20 page Road Map contains a worthwhile purpose and vision, a realistic strategy and action areas, and achievable strategic outcomes and targets. It is not a fluffy public relations document.

Action Area 1 of the Roadmap

Action Area 1 is “Embed the Health & Safety Landscape in NSW Workplaces”.

A health and safety landscape is an area where “Every job is designed to be safe, and has safe practices, controls and outputs” and has the 5 key elements of:

- "Leadership from the top - Workplace leaders visibly demonstrate their commitment to work health and safety"

- "Organisational safety capability and practices - The organisation has the capability to put in place safe systems, procedures and policies that translate to safe practices"

- "Consultation and communication – Consultation and communication hold all elements of the Safety Landscape together."

- "Worker capability – Workers have the skills and attitudes to work safely"

- "Safe environment - Safe physical and mental environment supported by supply chains"

Action Area 1 and the health and safety landscape is effectively shown in text and diagram form on pages 10 and 11 of the WHS Roadmap. Action Area 1 is the action area that is most relevant to what SafeWork NSW expects from all businesses in NSW.
