SmartMove
WorkSafe SmartMove aims to teach new and young workers how to recognise the potential dangers, hazards and risks found in the workplace and provide them with the tools to stay safe and healthy as they work.
Introduce general concepts of WHS to young people
Young workers often lack experience and knowledge of health and safety principles, making them vulnerable to work-related illnesses and injuries. The main goal of SmartMove is to keep young people safe in the workplace.
SmartMove objectives are to:
young people of the general hazards in the workplace
