SAFE29002 - Safety Improvement Project

General Information

Unit Synopsis

The unit provides you the opportunity to undertake an authentic capstone project which draws upon learning from throughout the course. The knowledge acquired from key concepts in earlier units prompts students to consider how an organisation’s health and safety is managed and can be improved. The unit examines an organisation's readiness for change in the light of emerging models of work health and safety and considers the contribution of organisational safety maturity, organisational culture and safety climate, leadership and change management. You will apply data driven evidence based methodologies to measure organisational performance, improvement and effectiveness.
