Health and Safety Representative Modules 1-3

Modules 1 to 3 introduce you to the HSR webinar modules and focus on consultation.

Consultation provides an opportunity to use the knowledge and experience of your staff to achieve a safer and healthier workplace. Your workplace consultation arrangements can be quite flexible provided they are planned and developed in consultation with workers. You may agree on establishing a health and safety committee, having a health and safety representative (HSR), or have other agreed arrangements.

Consultation is a legal requirement and an essential part of managing health and safety risks.
