Advances in Injury Management Overview

Advances in Injury Management

A seminar for injury management professionals across the WA public sector.

The State Government set out in the communique of April 2019 their vision for the Western Australian public sector where:

• Workplaces are mentally and physically healthy environments with positive and consultative safety cultures
• Workplace safety, health and injury management follows leading practice principles
• National targets for health and safety performance and injury management are achieved for the sector.

To lead the way, injury management professionals from the public sector need to be aware of current best practice. If you are responsible for coordinating injury management in your organisation this seminar is for you. You will hear from world-leading academics and clinicians who will present current evidence about the management of injuries and illnesses and early intervention.
