National Safe Work Month 2025 October is National Safe Work Month – a time employers and workers across Australia commit to creating safe and healthy workplaces. This year’s theme, safety: every job, every day – to prioritise safety in their job every day. #safeworkmonth2025

Week 1: Identify hazards Identifying hazards is the first step in the risk management process and involves finding things and situations that could potentially cause harm to people. Harm can be physical, psychological or both. Regularly review your risk register. #safeworkmonth25

Week 2: Assess Risks Once you’ve identified hazards, the next thing you need to do is assess the risks by considering what could happen if someone is exposed to a hazard, and how likely it is this could happen. A risk assessment can help you to determine how severe a risk is.

10.10.2025 - World Mental Health Day This year, the theme for World Mental Health Day is 'Connect with your community'. At home, work, school, in the community or online, on 10 October, Mental Health Australia encourages everyone to have conversations about mental health.

Week 3: Control Risks Controlling risks is the most important step in the risk management process, and it’s about the practical things you can do to eliminate the risks or minimise them as much as you can if elimination isn’t possible. #safeworkmonth2025

Week 4: Review Controls Controls are only effective at eliminating or minimising risks if they are working as planned, which is why reviewing control measures is an essential part of effective risk management – don’t wait until something goes wrong. #safeworkmonth2025
