The Slip: What good looks like – a stage play

Supported by the Mental Awareness, Respect and Safety (MARS) Program, The Slip stage play runs statewide through Safe Work Month. It explores the successful safety leadership seen in Utah’s Bingham Canyon Manefay mine slip. Acting Consulting Training (ACT) Australia and New Zealand actors bring the story to life with thought-provoking and interactive facilitation.

The state tour kicks off Safe Work Month on 1 October in Perth, then visits Kalgoorlie, Geraldton, Bunbury, Karratha and Port Hedland through October, with a final event in Perth on 7 November.

This event is free for the WA mining industry, with registrations required.
