On March 31, the WA Government implemented the latest Work Health and Safety reforms. 
 
The effect of the changes has broadened the liability and responsibility of companies, directors, and employees introduced significantly higher fines for WHS breaches and increased the potential for prison sentences. 
 
The WA Government announced funding to assist small to medium business access to external expertise required to get third party certification in national and international standards. For further information regarding the assistance and eligibility please click here. 

Our colleagues at Safety Solutions WA can facilitate the building of a health and safety management system for the ISO certifications for your business. ISO certification is a powerful tool and allows business owners to further grow their businesses. If you are eligible for the grant it will offset most of the costs involved.
