National Safe Work Month

Safety is everyone’s business

October is National Safe Work Month – a time for employers and workers across Australia to commit to creating safe and healthy workplaces.

Run by Safe Work Australia, National Safe Work Month encourages everyone to prioritise occupational health and safety and take preventative action to reduce the number of work-related incidents. No job should be unsafe, and a safe working environment has a collective benefit for employees, organisations and the community.

At Horner, the health, safety and wellbeing of all our Horner community is of utmost importance. We are proud to support National Safe Work Month and have a strong ongoing commitment and focus on health, safety and wellbeing not just this month but every month!
