There are only two weeks left until SAFETYconnect takes place at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre. Integrated into SAFETYconnect, the National Safety Conference will feature over 30 international and national speakers in the two-day, dual-stream conference program. The program includes two panel sessions with leading experts and regulators from across Australia. They will discuss how to integrate mental health in workplaces and how regulators are responding to changes in the nature of work and workplaces. Tickets are still available and can be purchased HERE. NSCA Foundation members receive up to $200 discount on tickets. We look forward to welcoming conference delegates, exhibitors and trade expo visitors.
