Work health and safety
Keep safety work moving. From report to review.
Give safety leads and service managers a clear view of hazards, assigned follow-up and routine checks. Keep incident records, psychosocial assessments and emergency drill outcomes in the same system.

The assessment is recorded. The control and its review still need follow-through.
Six registers for your safety team
Make the next action clear.
Bring hazard follow-up, equipment checks and drill improvements into the safety team’s routine review. Each register holds the details needed to assess the work and agree responsibilities.
- Hazards
Location, risk level, status, assigned person and due date.
Which open hazards need action first?
- Workplace incidents
Incident details, investigation notes, root cause and corrective actions.
What needs to change after the incident?
- Psychosocial assessments
Likelihood, consequence and controls for the assessed hazard.
Are the controls appropriate for the work?
- Equipment
Condition, service status and next inspection date.
What is due for inspection?
- Chemicals
Chemical details, SDS availability and expiry information.
Is the SDS recorded as available and current?
- Emergency drills
Participants, observations, improvements and corrective actions.
What did the exercise tell us to improve?
At the safety meeting
Start with the work that is still open.
Review open and assessed hazards by risk, owner and due date. Check the relevant control measures, then review equipment inspection dates and the improvements recorded after the last drill.
Use the records to agree who does what next and when the team will review it. Keep the workplace action and the record of that action moving together.
Bring an outstanding safety action to the demo.
Use fictional examples from your setting to explore the registers and the follow-up work.
- Follow a hazard
- Review its risk, assigned person, due date and status.
- Check a routine register
- Inspect equipment condition and inspection dates, or chemical and SDS status.
- Review an exercise
- Record a drill outcome and inspect its observations and corrective actions.
Confirm access, responsibilities and the safety procedures that apply to your workplaces.
Questions from safety teams
What safety registers does Statura include?
The WHS area includes staff and workplace incidents, hazards, psychosocial assessments, chemicals, equipment and emergency drills. Resident and client SIRS reporting has a separate workflow. Review the fields and workflow for each register in a demo using examples from your service.
How does the hazard register support follow-up?
The register shows location, type, risk level, status, assigned person and due date. Risk and status filters help focus the review. The recorded lifecycle is Open, Assessed, Controlled and Closed. A status update records the team’s decision; the team still needs to check that controls work in practice.
Can we record psychosocial hazards?
Yes. The assessment workflow includes seven categories: workload, role clarity, work-life balance, bullying and harassment, violence and aggression, fatigue, and remote or isolated work. It supports likelihood and consequence ratings and recorded controls. Confirm your consultation and review process against the requirements that apply in your jurisdiction.
Does the chemical register store every safety data sheet?
The register tracks SDS availability and expiry alongside chemical details. The sheets themselves need a document-storage and access process, agreed during implementation so your team can retrieve the current version.
What can we record after an emergency drill?
Record the completion date, participant count, evacuation time where relevant, observations, improvements and corrective actions. These provide a record for reviewing the exercise and planning follow-up.
Confirm the WHS or OHS requirements that apply in your jurisdiction. Safe Work Australia explains how model laws are implemented.
