It is timely to talk about SafeWork SA launching their ‘April No-Falls’ safety campaign. Across April, they are raising awareness of the dangers of working at heights. Like all WHS responsibilities, managing the risk of falls is everyone’s responsibility. A fall from height injury can have a devastating physical, emotional, and financial impact on workers, businesses, families, and the wider community.
SafeWork SA would like to see how you are making April a no falls month at your workplace. If you are hosting an event or toolbox promoting working safely at heights, add it to your social channels and use the hashtag #AprilNoFalls. If your workplace promotes safety at heights and has great safe work systems, post some photos on your socials and include the hashtags #AprilNoFalls and #WHS.
As part of this campaign, the South Australian Business Chamber is holding a Working at Heights webinar this Thursday 7 April 2022.
If you have employees working at heights, this webinar will help you understand:
Deborah Hegarty, our resident WHS expert, will facilitate this session. You will get plenty of time to ask any specific questions you may have regarding working at heights. Register here >
