Why you should attend:

"In 2008, we've cut straight to the chase: how CEOs like Ziggy Switkowski and Jerry Ellis justify the business case for OHS & E. A not to be missed opportunity for senior executives, managers and OHS professionals."
- Phillip Kamay, FSIA RSP (Aust), President, Safety Institute of Australia Victoria Division

   

WorkSafe Victoria says:

 "It's not enough just to think you have a safe workplace, you have to know it will be safe. Staying up to date is essential. Don't just aim to meet the standard, exceeding it pays dividends. We'll be there!"
