From the desk of the CEO

Thursday 5 July, 2012

Hello members and welcome to another financial year. Thank you to those who completed the recent survey, sharing your views on some key questions surrounding how your SIA works. We will be taking the views expressed through that survey into account when making decisions regarding how the SIA operates and serves you, as our members.

Thank you to those members who have already renewed their membership – we look forward to another year working with you to improve work health and safety outcomes in Australian workplaces. Over the next few months there are a host of events for SIA members, including two events by the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Australia later this month, two major conferences in Perth and Queensland throughout August and other regional events in your area. Check out the events webpage of our website for details: http://www.sia.org.au/events.aspx So if you haven’t already renewed your membership, do so soon in order to take advantage of discounted rates for our members to these great events.

Finally, look out for the new e-news item from the Australian Occupational Health and Safety Education Accreditation Board. The newsletter provides information on the accreditation board and the work being performed. I encourage you to read the accreditation board e-news and keep up to date with these exciting developments in OHS education.
