WorkCover Queensland has announced it will be holding a free forum for employers in the passenger transport industry on 23 January 2013.

 

Topics covered will include injury prevention, workplace health and the upcoming health and safety harmonisation laws.

 

Customer Services Manager (North), Matt Cross, who manages the transport industry says the forum also provides a platform to network with other employers.

 

"The feedback from previous employer forums has been guests appreciate the opportunity to meet their industry peers, hear how they prevent and manage injuries, and generally discuss what's happening in their industry.

 

"We'll also invite an employer to present a case study to the group - discuss what strategies they implement and how these achieve positive outcomes. We hope guests will leave the forum with ideas and possible ways they can improve workplace safety, injury management and wellness at work," Matt said.

 

Places are limited. If you would like to attend, call 1300 362 128 and ask to be transferred to the North Customer Services Centre.
