Welcome to Safe Work Australia.
Safe Work Australia is an Australian Government statutory agency established in 2009, with the primary responsibility of improving work health and safety and workers’ compensation arrangements across Australia.
The agency is jointly funded by the Commonwealth, state and territory governments facilitated through an intergovernmental agreement signed in July 2008.
Safe Work Australia represents a genuine partnership between governments, unions and industry. Together we work towards the goal of reducing death, injury and disease in the workplace.
