CMTO/CBAA Webinars: WHS
The latest CMTO/CBAA Webinar, held on Thursday 12 June, delved into the world of Workplace Health and Safety with guest speaker Gavin Deadman from Aon Risk Services.
The Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (WHS Act) aims to protect the health and safety of all workers nationwide, including volunteers.
Ensuring the health and safety of volunteers demonstrates that their commitment is valued and recognises the vital role they play in community broadcasting.
AON Australia is a diverse organisation providing a complete suite of specialised risk management, risk financing and insurance services to a wide range of clients.
