SafetyNet 555

October 21: Welcome to a very short edition of SafetyNet. 

Both this edition and probably next week's, will be short editions, due to our Risks to Psychological Health Conference next Tuesday. While registrations closed last week (we have literally thousands registered!), those who either missed out or want to be able to see what went on can do so. We will be recording the sessions and uploading these to the Conference webpage. The materials we posted to Victorian HSRs and deputies are available now to download, also from the page. 

Visit our We Are Union: OHS Reps Facebook page for news, memes and more. If you have any questions or need any advice, we can be reached via the Ask Renata facility on the website or through the closed OHS Network Facebook page. If you have comments or want to send through any ideas, email us at [email protected]
