💻 Right to Disconnect: Protecting Work-Life Balance!

Starting 26 August 2024 (for non-small businesses) and 26 August 2025 (for small businesses), employees will have the Right to Disconnect from work-related contact outside regular hours.

Key points to remember:
✔️ No need to respond to work calls, emails, or texts after hours unless it’s unreasonable.
✔️ Urgent situations may require contact, but compensation and role expectations apply.
✔️ Employers and employees should set clear boundaries for after-hours communication.

A step forward for healthier work-life boundaries! 🌟

We are proud to support the Western Australian Museum in ensuring compliance with WHS legislation! Here's what Senior Project Officer Jason Beard had to say about our audit work done by Kelsey:

'Appreciate the work on auditing the WHSMS for WA Museum, with an easy-to-follow audit report mapped against the WHS Act and Regs. This has given me personally a plan to ensure the Museum continues to be compliant with WHS legislation, as well as strengthen processes in place with suggested room for improvement items.'

Thank you, WA Museum, for trusting us to help build safer workplaces!

Safety Tip: Lift Smart, Protect Your Back!

When lifting heavy objects, stand close, bend your knees, keep your back straight, and use your legs—not your back—to lift. Hold the load close to your body and avoid twisting. Lift safely to stay injury-free!
