Safety Literacy - Brisbane Tour October 2025 Courses

The Safety Literacy – Brisbane Tour (28–30 October 2025) brings together three of Greg Smith’s most in-demand programs. Each course bridges the gap between theory and practice, giving businesses the tools to manage legal, safety, and operational risks effectively. Unlike traditional safety training, these sessions cut through complexity, highlight what truly matters in WHS management, and provide practical strategies you can apply immediately. Over three days in Brisbane, you can attend:

Proving Safety - 28 October 2025

Proving Safety challenges the idea that paper systems alone keep people safe. Most programs fail to show they actually work. This masterclass helps you build fit-for-purpose safety systems that genuinely protect people while demonstrating key legal duties: reasonably practicable, due diligence, and reasonable care.

Contractor Safety Management - 29 October 2025

Contractor Safety Management focuses on the real risks in managing contractors. It shows how influence, control, and approving contractor systems can create legal and safety obligations, and provides practical guidance to manage those risks effectively.

Legal Risk Management of Psychosocial Hazards

Legal Risk Management of Psychosocial Hazards cuts through the complexity of managing workplace psychological risks. The course shows how to navigate overlapping legal duties and make decisions that are both legally defensible and genuinely protect workers.
