A visual approach to inductions

Presentation by: Troy Winn, WHS Manager, Simonds Group

Presentation package now available (members only)

How do you move safety induction online yet keep it alive? Troy Winn spoke about how he met that challenge in a presentation on Tuesday, 9 April.

Troy, who is WHS Manager for the Simonds Group, recently completed a Masters in Ergonomics, Safety and Health at La Trobe University in Melbourne. His presentation was based on research he did in the Advanced Practice Stream as part of his postgraduate degree. 

Working in the construction industry, Troy and his safety team were often investing several hours a week delivering safety inductions to site supervisors before they commenced a job. A high turnover of people and projects on sites made this a demanding commitment.

Troy spoke about a project to move this training online, where his role was to produce videos. He outlined the thinking and planning behind it, as well as the particular role of videos in making the induction more engaging and effective.  

His presentation included some of his safety induction videos, along with discussion about the various ideas, steps and lessons that went into making them.

The presenter:

Troy Winn has been WHS Manager for the Simonds Group since 2022. Prior to that he held national safety management roles in a number of construction companies. He spent several years as State OHS Advisor for the Housing Industry Association. Troy has also worked in the mental health, allied health, child care and aged care sectors. His experience includes roles in safety, wellbeing, workers compensation and risk management with organisations including Mind Australia, Blue Cross Aged Care and EACH healthcare services. Troy completed his Masters in Ergonomics, Safety and Health at La Trobe University in October 2023.

Super-charging safety
Business imperatives and safety outcomes are not always compatible, but Catherine Itman will be offering a good-news story to Central Safety Group at the April lunchtime presentation.
As a safety specialist in the Safety and Property Risk team at Industry Super Property Trust (ISPT), Catherine will talk about how ISPT maintains a ‘do no harm’ investment and operating philosophy, with HSE principles integrated into all business activity.
Catherine will describe how the Safety and Property Risk team embraces opportunities to strengthen safety leadership across business functions, within a fast-paced business environment. By leading data-informed decision-making, understanding and translating business drivers into safety outcomes, and supporting change as early adopters, the team has established itself as a critical business function with respected and sought-after expertise.
Established in 1994 by some of Australia’s leading superannuation funds, ISPT has grown a national property portfolio worth over $20 billion. Catherine will explain their ‘active client’ business model, where the ISPT Safety and Property Risk team works closely with internal stakeholders and external partners to set standards and influence safety performance.
