Get involved in National Safe Work Month
National Safe Work Month is in October, with members encouraged to get involved in activities that promote health, safety and wellbeing.
Held each year, Safe Work Month provides the opportunity for us to strengthen our commitment to creating a safe, healthy and supportive environment for every member - whether at the station or an office location.
Throughout October, we are focusing on practical actions to identify and report hazards, support physical and mental wellbeing, and help you prepare safely for the fire season ahead.
There are a range of self-led activities and resources available, including videos, podcasts, practical advice and activity ideas designed to enhance knowledge and increase safety awareness.
General Manager Health, Safety and Wellbeing Sanjeev Choudhary encouraged members to get involved in Safe Work Month and use the available resources to start meaningful conversations about what safety looks like.
"Health, safety and wellbeing are not just individual responsibilities; they are organisational commitments reflected in the decisions we make, the way we work and how we look out for one another," he said.
"Together, we can prevent harm, strengthen our resilience, and ensure everyone returns home safe and well."
