24.01.2022 WAs Container Deposit Scheme launch date had to be delayed due to COVID-19, a decision that was supported by the community and public health advice. Because of... the hard work of Western Australians in responding to COVID-19. Were now able to get on with the job of making sure this scheme delivers the best possible outcomes for all Western Australians. Our container deposit scheme will now commence on October 1. This launch date strikes the right balance between keeping people safe and ensuring the sustainability of the network. When operational the scheme will result in reduced litter, improved recycling rates, and the creation of new businesses and employment opportunities across the State. Itll allow Western Australians to claim a 10-cent refund when they return eligible beverage containers at designated refund points across the State. It is estimated more than 500 jobs will be created at refund points across the State. This includes hundreds of jobs to be targeted at employing people with disability, the long-term unemployed and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, as well as opportunities for apprentices and trainees. In preparation for the scheme, participants made financial commitments such as taking on leases, staff and technology to support their operations. Were committed to ensuring they remain viable until scheme commencement. Thats why as part of todays announcement we also included a financial assistance package of up to $3.5 million to support network participants financially impacted by deferral of the scheme. This funding will be made available from June 2, 2020 until scheme commencement.

20.01.2022 Today, on International Workers Memorial Day, we take a moment to remember those who have lost their lives at work, or from work-related injury or disease. We ...remember those who went to work and never came home. And we resolve to never let it happen again. My Governments Work Health and Safety Bill, currently before the Upper House, not only creates a safer workplace for Western Australians. It will make sure those responsible for workplace deaths are held to account, establishing the offence of industrial manslaughter. Workers, no matter where they work, no matter who they are, deserve to come home safe.

20.01.2022 This Safe Work Month WorkSafe wants you and your workplace to focus on safety and think about why safety and health is important. Why is safety important to you?

15.01.2022 We use 10,000 drink containers every 4 minutes that could be $1k in your pocket! Were changing recycling in WA. Enter our comp and you could WIN $10k.

15.01.2022 I think this is something we can all agree on. No one leaving for work should be saying goodbye to their families for the last time. Every workplace should be s...afe for the workers in it. And if any Western Australian doesnt make it home because of their employers negligence, there should be serious consequences for that employer. Our bill to establish industrial manslaughter as an offence in WA is now before the parliament, with a maximum penalty of 20 years imprisonment for an individual and a fine of $10 million for a body corporate.

13.01.2022 Common sense!? Not so common!

13.01.2022 Hospitals are not always the best place for everyone to recover from mental health issues. We know this. We also know that people recover better when they have ...their personal networks close by. Thats why at the last election we promised to deliver Step Up, Step Down facilities across the State. Just like the one I officially opened in Bunbury today. Step Up, Step Down is a residential, community-based approach to recovery for those experiencing mental health issues. They are purpose built to meet the needs of those experiencing mental health distress. It enables West Australians to gain holistic, wrap around care which caters to their individual circumstances. It provides 24/7 support for individuals right in their community, close to family and friends. This new facility in Bunbury will complement the nearly $40 million in other mental health and alcohol drug services provided throughout the South West. I know there is more to do. We will continue this work to ensure we prevent, support and treat mental health issues with the utmost dignity.

13.01.2022 Are you and your business ready?? We can help you achieve compliance with affordable rates and practical guidance. Call or message us today!

11.01.2022 Hand hygiene is extremely important to reduce the transmission of germs. This is particularly relevant at the moment.

07.01.2022 Now thats the kind of view you want for a Friday meeting Had the pleasure of meeting Denise from @safetytechperth this morning excited to have Denises extensive knowledge on hand for the future .

07.01.2022 Every worker should always come home safe. But the workplace tragedy we saw last week was an awful reminder that they don't always come home. And that will neve...r be acceptable. Tonight, after a long journey through Parliament, our legislation to make industrial manslaughter a crime in Western Australia has finally passed the upper house. The bill will put stronger penalties in place for employers who contribute to a worker's death, as well as preventing insurance being used to pay for fines relating to workplace safety breaches. It's long overdue, and if it prevents even one Western Australian from being injured or killed on the job, it will be more than worth it.

07.01.2022 Common sense or not so common?
