Safety and Wellbeing

The University is committed to providing a physically and virtually safe environment in which to work and study and a culturally safe community where everyone can thrive. Through its curation of the University’s safety system, and in collaboration with staff across the University (including the University’s Chemical Safety and Radiation Safety officers), our Safety and Wellbeing team has contributed significantly to our strong safety performance.

Consultancy support is provided across the portfolio of Academic and central administrative support units. The return to work and wellbeing and safety consultancy services complements the advice provided, working in collaboration with other PTC functions such as People and Organisational Development and the Strategic People Partners and Senior People Consultants.

Managers and staff should call 8302 2459 or email HSIM.SafetyWellbeing@unisa.edu.au in the first instance if they have any general WHS queries or problems.
