INDUSTRY ADVISORY WORKSHOPA key component of the Transport WHS Sector
Plan is to consult with the transport sector on priority harms
identified in the industry.
SafeWork NSW will facilitate workshops in regional and metropolitan
NSW to seek industry advice on developing safety strategies for the
following risks:

* loading and unloading
* vehicle immobilisation and unintentional vehicle movement
* exclusion zones – separating people and plant
* couple and uncouple trailers
* safe zones for drivers and safe parking areas
* roadside safety.
The workshop will also provide a summary of injury trends and factors
in transport and a status update on what’s happening in the
Transport WHS Sector Plan.
