The nature of work is changing — and so too must our approach to health and safety. Join industry leaders, regulators, and innovators for a full-day program exploring how workplaces are evolving to meet new challenges, from psychosocial risks and ergonomics to the latest WHS legislation and emerging technologies. Through expert presentations, panel discussions, and networking opportunities, attendees will gain practical insights to strengthen safety leadership, drive cultural change, and future-proof their organisations. Together, we will reimagine safety for the modern workplace
Hosted by the NSCA Foundation, this one-day forum brings together WA’s safety community to explore the key trends, reforms and challenges shaping the future of work health and safety.
Gain practical insights into the WHS Act 2022 and Workers Compensation and Injury Management Act 2023, including lessons learned from their implementation. Learn how to manage emerging risks—from psychosocial harm to sedentary work—and embed sustainable, compliant safety systems. Discover new tools, technologies and leadership approaches to build safer workplaces.
