QTA Safety Webinar-How to Manage visits by WHSQ (16.07.25)
Webinar #1: How to Manage Visits by WHSQ - What You Need to Know & Why
Join our important Safety Webinar tailored for road freight transport that will cover key topics that every operator must understand to ensure compliance and maintain safety standards.
We'll explore your obligations when an inspector visits your workplace—what you need to do before, during, and after their visit to comply with regulations and avoid penalties. You'll learn what safety notices are, why they are issued, and how you can prevent them through proactive safety management.
Understanding and reviewing safety notices is crucial for maintaining safe operations and mitigating risks. We'll discuss the importance of regularly reviewing these notices, when to do so, and effective methods for assessing and implementing the necessary actions.
This webinar emphasises the significant implications of non-compliance, including fines, operational disruptions, and safety risks. By understanding your responsibilities and how to effectively manage safety notices, you can promote a safer workplace and avoid costly consequences.
