COVID-19

Safe Work Australia is the national policy agency responsible for workplace health and safety (WHS) and workers’ compensation arrangements in Australia. Since 2009, Safe Work Australia have conducted a national campaign during October to raise awareness of WHS and provide resources for Australian workplaces to run their own events.

This year’s theme, Work Health and Safety through COVID-19, acknowledges and reflects the wide-reaching impacts of COVID-19 on Australian businesses, employers and workers. 

Workplaces have had to quickly adapt their practices and procedures to reduce the WHS risks arising from COVID-19 and to manage the psychological effects of the pandemic on workers. 

In Her Boots has taken the time to meet with some insightful leaders to share some of their experiences and tips during this global pandemic.
