Most Australian companies have been very progressive in improving our workplaces over the last two decades. The final hurdle is personal accountability and commitment from each individual to build a sustainable safety culture.

Phillip Smallman is on a mission to help individuals, no matter what their role in the company to understand why it’s important to contribute to a safe culture.

Workplace safety, as you know, isn’t just all about saving lives. It’s about preventing injury and the trauma that means for workers, their family, workmates and the company.
