As an OHS Professional are you ready to step up? - Clarke Martin (Chair Health and Safety Professionals Alliance (HaSPA))
During these times of OHS change the demand for services and advice of OHS Professional's is expected to increase. At the same time the community's expectation of Professionals is at an all time high. For the OHS Profession this provides huge opportunities but also great responsibilities. Servicing the needs of industry to ensure workers are safe is a complex task requiring up to date knowledge, best practice application and peer support networks. With a history of fragmentation, patchy certification of members from OHS professional bodies and OHS courses being a mixture of vocational training and higher education the OHS Profession is making a stand. Through the Health and Safety Professionals Alliance which is a first for the Australian OHS landscape which brings together health and safety regulators, professional bodies and universities who provide OHS courses change is happening. Clarke will provide an outline of the changes to the OHS Profession, the plans in place and the outcomes they are seeking in OHS over the coming years in Australia and why OHS Professionals need to step up and lead.
