WHS Guidance kit

Want to know more about work health and safety (WHS) laws to keep your workplace healthy and safe?

Perhaps you’re looking for a resource to share during a staff meeting, use as a discussion topic for a toolbox meeting, or include in new-starter safety inductions?

WorkSafe has a series of WHS guidance kits to raise awareness of responsibilities and duties under the WHS laws. Each kit has a video guide that showcases resources by navigating the relevant website content and highlighting the location of publications and animations.

The short animations are a particularly useful as they help to visualise and understand the application of the WHS laws. Transcripts are provided for each video to assist with accessibility. Animations include:
