HSRs - Partners in safety

Presentation by: Mike Craig, HSR Support Officer, WorkSafe Victoria

Presentation package now available (members only)

Health And Safety Representatives (HSRs), elected to represent their fellow employees, along with workplace Health and Safety Committees can make an important difference to workplace safety culture and outcomes.
Mike Craig, Health and Safety Representative Support Officer with WorkSafe Victoria, discussed how Safety Managers can assist in making these workplace safety roles and relationships as productive and constructive as possible in a lunchtime CSG presentation on 9 May.
Mike spoke about his role, which includes training, coaching and providing OHS legislative advice to Victorian HSRs as well as liaising and networking with a wide range of stakeholders.
Working inside a wide variety of workplaces, Mike witnesses the positive difference in safety outcomes from good collaboration and consultation between those representing the employers and those representing the employees.
His talk was followed by questions and discussion.

The presenter:

Mike Craig has had over 13 years’ experience in the area of health and safety as a manager, HSR and safety professional dealing with workplace health and safety matters. He joined WorkSafe Victoria four years ago, and prior to that his work included roles with Medibank, Origin Energy and Telstra.

Designing good work


What if work wasn’t the problem but the solution to wellbeing? That is the premise of the fascinating book 'Good Work – Transform Your Work from the Inside Out', released earlier this year by organisational psychologist and leadership partner Dr Kat Page.

Central Safety Group offers you the opportunity to hear from Kat at our monthly event on Tuesday 10 November, where she will challenge the idea that work is inherently harmful.
Drawing on science, stories, and practical tools, Kat's book shows how leaders and teams can design work that’s both human and high-performing. This is based on a new framework for change: Me, We, Us.

Me – How do I redesign my own relationship with work so it fuels rather than depletes me?
We – How do we create teams that energise and protect each other?
Us – How do we build organisations and societies where good work is the norm, not the exception?

​Good Work is both a guide and a call to collective action. It’s written for leaders, change-makers, and anyone ready to change work for good – for themselves and for others.
Kat's book has been highly recommended by CSG members, including Kevin Jones. Don't miss your chance to meet Kat and join what is bound to be a very stimulating discussion.
