Central Safety Group Inc. AGM news
On the 13th February 2024, Central Safety Group held its 2023 AGM.
As an incorporated association, CSG must hold an annual general meeting and submit our financial statement to Consumer Affairs Victoria.
As there were no new nominees, this meeting confirmed the CSG Committee members as listed below:
- President - Nan Austin
- Vice-President - Christina Rennick
- Secretary - Heather Turner
- Treasurer - Cameron Cranstoun
- Committee Members - Jane Loudon, Marina Milankovic, Dominic Melling
Due to pending retirements, all members are encouraged to consider nominating for a committee role to ensure effective handover and longevity of your CSG as we move into our 64th year of sharing safety knowledge. We particularly need committee members with strong social media and IT skills. If you are interested, please go to the Contact US section on our home page.
In addition to the formal election of committee members and receipt of the Annual Report and Financial Statement, the AGM raised two proposals that were accepted unanimously. The first was to increase Corporate Member’s fee to $350 per calendar year (whilst maintaining the individual membership fee at $85). The Corporate Membership fee has remained at $300 ever since this tier of membership was introduced over 10 years ago. As Individual fees have increased steadily over the same period, it was thought that corporate membership fees were due for a modest increase.
Currently the annual fee allows corporations to send up to 3 employees to in-person events at the membership price (Zoom attendance is unlimited). This will increase to 4 employees when the fee increases in 2025.
The second proposal was to accept Frank Misteretta as a Life Member of CSG. Frank has maintained continuous membership since 1980 and has served on the committee in various roles including President.
Many thanks to those who attended the AGM as we look forward to another great year!
