According to the Department of Labour there were 65 workplace fatalities during
the year ending June
2006. This is an increase of 44% from the previous year. Compliance with health
and safety legislation is important in order to prevent fatalities and injuries.
Failure to comply with the legislation may reflect an unsafe workplace and lead
to serious repercussions in the form of prosecutions, negative publicity, and low
workplace morale.

The course guides the user through their compliance obligations under the Act.

helpful summary at the beginning of each lesson. The duties and implications
