Posted on 11 Mar 2024

Safety – not child’s play

Tuesday, 26 March 2024 from 9am – 3pm

“Great session and incredibly interesting and valuable. It was lovely to attend an OHS session that is relevant to the sector … what is classed as a pretty dull subject was made interesting, very very useful and meaningful.” – recent participant feedback, May 2023.

As an approved provider of early childhood services, you need to ensure that you have the processes in place to look after the physical and mental safety of your staff.

In this OHS seminar we tackle how to keep staff safe from hazards and how to support their psychological wellbeing. It doesn’t have to be complicated, and we will let you know which resources to use and how to make OHS a part of your everyday work.

This tailored session is for the Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) sector and is fast becoming one of the most sought after ECEC sessions on the training calendar so we encourage early registration for 26 March.

We will also explore ACECQA’s Risk Assessment and Management Tool and how this can be included in your OHS processes.

Topics include:

  • OHS laws in Victoria
  • legal responsibilities of employers
  • duties of employees
  • OHS management systems
  • ACECQA Risk Assessment and Management Tool
  • hazard identification and risk assessments
  • manual handling
  • office ergonomics
  • psychological wellbeing of employees.
