Modernising and simplifying safety

Presentation by: Scott McMillan, Director of Safety, Melbourne Park

CSG event video now available (members only)
Presentation package now available (members only)

New technologies, behavioural studies and changes in the workplace are leading to more efficient and productive ways to manage workplace OHS.

Examples of this, and advice on how to put them into practice, were discussed at Central Safety Group’s lunchtime event on 14 July by Scott McMillan, Director of Safety at Melbourne Park.

Scott has a track record of modernising and simplifying safety in complex, high-risk environments and he demonstrated some of the new and evolving technologies that are influencing health and safety practices.

He showed how to improve workforce engagement using practical and technology-focused approaches. This can help safety managers equip employees for both the present and a rapidly changing future.

Scott also discussed how to streamline and declutter safety systems to improve clarity and frontline uptake.

The presenter:

Scott McMillan is the Director of Safety at Melbourne Park and an Honorary Fellow at Deakin University, recognised for his leadership in applying emerging technologies to enhance safety training and performance. With a trade background as an Electrician and Instrumentation Technician, Scott has built a diverse career across heavy industries and complex operating environments, including remote locations such as Antarctica.

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.
