Workplace health and safety & the new Biosecurity Act

How prepared are you when it comes to WH&S on your property?

Did you know that every year, around 1700 general workplace injuries occur within the agricultural industry, affecting one in every 25 agricultural workers and costing approx. $22 million in compensation claims.

What impacts does the new Biosecurity Act have on your beef business?

Learn what has changed and what is required in regards to:

  • Animal health and welfare
  • Invasive plant and animal management
  • Cattle tick

At the end of the day you will leave with a better understanding of Farm Safety, WHS documents specific to your property and the low down on the new Biosecurity Act and what it means for your enterprise.

Smoko and lunch provided.
