WORKSAFE VICTORIA AWARDS 2022

WorkSafe are calling for nominations for their 2022 Awards acknowledging excellence in workplace health and safety, and return to work.

There are 7 award categories in all, including, of course, Health and Safety Representative of the year, the category which acknowledges HSRs who’ve represented their DWG in an outstanding manner.

It is, in our view, the most important and prestigious award, and was won last year by United Workers Union members Adrian Lidsey and Christopher Ball for their outstanding achievement in finally turning Crown Melbourne into a non-smoking workplace.

Entries close on 15 July 2022, so don't delay if you’d like to nominate a HSR, or HSRs, at your workplace. Find more information here.
