Membership guidelines

The Zero Harm at Work Leadership Program encourages industry and government to work together to find new and innovative ways to improve the culture of safety across all industries - not just in individual workplaces.

The leadership program targets industry leaders who have the capacity to significantly influence the way in which, not only their own organisation operates, but also that of their supply chains.

A commitment to the Zero Harm at Work Leadership Program comes from directors, owners and CEO's. This is not a program for the designated safety officer within your organisation although they will play an important role in promoting the principles of the Leadership Program in your workplace. The leadership program works on the principle that commitment to change comes from the leader of an organisation and their ability to influence industry from the top down.

In agreeing to become a leadership program member, you are agreeing to:

commit to the goal of zero harm at work
support the Zero Harm at Work Leadership Program charter principles
report to Workplace Health and Safety Queensland once a year against the program reporting criteria, it's quick and easy
show your support by attending Leadership Program forums
have your organisation's name published on the Workplace Health and Safety Queensland's website as a Zero Harm at Work Leadership Program member.
