Queensland has a 5 year plan which will make the state safer, its Work Health and Safety Board says. The peak advisory board, made up of representatives from employer associations, trade unions and academia came up with the plan in response to the recommendations of the Best Practice Review into Workplace Health and Safety Queensland.

According to Industrial Relations Minister Grace Grace, the plan is a reflection of new and contemporary thinking, having taken current and emerging global trends into consideration as well as how they impact work health and safety across industry workplaces, community and the government.

Over the next 5 years, the board has identified 4 main areas that it will focus on, including

  1. Embracing innovation and technology
  2. Designing health and safe work
  3. Fostering a culture of health and safety.
  4. Effective regulation
