Returning to the workplace after a holiday or time away
means returning to a safe mindset!
 
Returning to work can be challenging. Our minds may
still be in “holiday” or “home” mode, which means we
are less alert to workplace risks and hazards and more
susceptible to injury during this period.​

We need to consciously switch our mindsets and
be fully focused on the job or task at hand.
We can all be safety leaders and play our part by:
Always speaking up
Stopping the job if we feel it is unsafe
Contributing to risk assessments and continuous
improvements
Challenging unsafe behaviours or workplace conditions.
Recognising and praising positive H&S performance and
behaviours.
