OHS and workers compensation

OHS and workers compensation are primarily state responsibilities. The federal government has jurisdiction over federal public servants and the maritime industry.

Awards and agreements may contain OHS provisions. However, employers are central to the process of putting in place appropriate policies and procedures.

Workers compensation is broadly governed by legislation. Good OHS practices can impact on workers compensation by keeping injuries and premiums down.
