This week, the Minister for Innovation, Matt Kean, launched the Manufacturing WHS Sector Plan, a key deliverable of the SafeWork NSW Work Health and Safety Roadmap for NSW 2022.

SafeWork Director for Metropolitan Operations & Sector Initiatives, Elizabeth Tosti, said the Sector Plan represents a collaborative agreement between SafeWork NSW and industry that will drive and influence safety improvements across the state. The tools developed as part of this plan will be applicable to both small and large businesses

“This launch marks the beginning of an exciting five-year journey that we are taking with industry,” she said.

“Through this collaboration, we have set out a clear direction for manufacturing safety that shows the way forward. With strong leadership from the top, we are confident this will be a successful program of work with benefits for all levels of industry.”

By providing leaders, and those who influence change, with the tools they need to set the highest possible standards, we can all reduce serious injuries and foster a workforce that looks out for each other.
