COMCARE: PSYCH HEALTH FORUM

Comcare is inviting interested people to join it on World Mental Health Day for their second Psychosocial Health and Safety Forum for 2024, on Thursday 10 October, 1pm-3.30pm. This is one of the free activities Comcare is running during National Safe Work Month.

The forum is designed to build an understanding of psychosocial hazards and risk management approaches, through the use of validated tools, resources, and share examples of better practice. It would be particularly useful to HSRs under the Comcare system, it includes combined regulatory update from Comcare and Safe Work Australia, and examples of managing psychosocial risk through senior leadership capability building and an early intervention program from the Australian Tax Office.

This session will be recorded and made available on the Comcare website. There are limited spaces for this forum, so Comcare asks that people only register if you are available to attend the live event. Register here.
