The quarterly safety report for October to December 2021 (PDF, 7 MB) has been released to better inform industry when reviewing safety management systems and undertaking risk assessments at their sites. The report details incidents and trends relating to hazard management, in addition to sector specific information.
As a high-hazard regulator, we focus on compliance with legislative requirements associated with principal and other high-risk hazards. ‘Roads or other vehicle operating areas’, ‘fires or explosion’ and ‘air quality or dusts and other airborne contaminants’ are hazards that feature regularly in incident notifications to the Regulator.
In the October – December 2021 quarter, total incident notifications received by principal hazard were down (from 211 to 178). This figure represents a 9% reduction from the quarterly average (190) recorded for the previous four quarters.
You can access the report (PDF, 7 MB) on our activity and safety reports page.
