FROM AWARENESS TO ACTION: IDENTIFYING HAZARDS THAT PROTECT YOUR PEOPLE

Posted on by Laurie Innerst

Every safe workplace starts with awareness. The moment we recognise and act on hazards, we protect not only compliance and productivity but, more importantly, our people.

Safe Work Australia highlights that identifying hazards is the first step in risk management. Under the model WHS Act, employers (PCBUs) have a duty to spot and address hazards in every workplace environment. This responsibility isn’t just a legal box to tick, it’s about building a culture where workers go home safe – every single day.

When employers identify hazards early, they can:

  • Prevent injury and illness before they occur.
  • Support a healthier, more confident workforce.
  • Build trust with employees by showing that safety is a priority.
  • Maintain compliance with WHS laws and reduce costly downtime.

At Labourpower, we believe safety goes 24/7. That means being proactive in hazard identification and ensuring that every person we place is prepared for safe and effective work from day one.

 

Why Identifying Hazards Matters

 

Hazards aren’t always obvious. They may be physical (such as slippery floors or faulty equipment), ergonomic (poor manual handling practices), or even psychosocial (including fatigue, bullying and stress). Employers who make hazard identification a daily habit build stronger safety cultures and more resilient teams.

Safe Work Australia provides clear guidance:

  • Hazards must be identified before work begins, whenever changes occur, and as part of regular reviews.
  • Workers must be consulted, as they often notice risks firsthand.
  • Employers must take steps to eliminate risks where possible, or minimise them as far as reasonably practicable.

Reference: Safe Work Australia – How to Manage Work Health and Safety Risks

 

Practical Ways Employers Can Identify Hazards

 

  1. Workplace inspections – Walk through regularly, looking beyond the obvious.
  2. Engage your team – Toolbox talks, feedback loops, and near-miss reporting give real insight.
  3. Use hazard checklists – Cover physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic, and psychosocial hazards.
  4. Review data – Past incidents and near misses are a goldmine of lessons.
  5. Monitor change – New equipment, materials, or processes = new hazards to identify.

 

Labourpower’s Commitment

 

When you partner with Labourpower, you don’t just get skilled staff; you get people who have already been inducted in safety awareness and assessed for industry-specific risks. Our teams arrive trained, reliable, and ready to contribute to safe, productive operations.

We know that for employers, identifying hazards is about more than compliance. It’s about protecting lives, maintaining trust, and ensuring that every worker feels supported and valued. And for us, it’s personal: every placement is a person with a family to go home to.

This Safe Work Month, take the lead in protecting your workforce by identifying hazards early. Labourpower can help you implement practical hazard awareness strategies while providing a workforce that is safety-ready from day one.

SAFE WORK MONTH 2025: SAFETY GOES 24/7 AT LABOURPOWER

Posted on by Laurie Innerst

October marks National Safe Work Month 2025, an initiative led by Safe Work Australia to highlight workplace health and safety across all industries. This year’s theme reminds us to prioritise ‘Safety: Every Job, Every Day’ and make it a reality through a proactive approach to managing WHS risks.

At Labourpower, we live and breathe this philosophy every day!

As the National HSEQ Manager, with over 30 years’ experience in workplace health, safety, environment, and quality management, I’ve seen one truth stand out:

Safety doesn’t clock off at 5 pm – safety goes 24/7.

 

 

Safety Goes Beyond the Workplace

 

For many businesses, safety is seen as something that starts at the warehouse gate and ends at the clock-off siren. But, in labour hire and recruitment, safety follows our people into every corner of their day:

  • On the job, whether driving a forklift, loading freight, or working in an office, hazards must be identified, risks managed, and safe practices followed.
  • On the road, fatigue, distraction, and poor planning can turn commutes or client site travel into serious risks.
  • At home, practising safe lifting, proper ergonomics, and mindfulness around wellbeing can prevent injuries and stress that can spill over into the workplace.

At Labourpower, we encourage our teams and clients to view safety as a 24/7 commitment because a safe worker on shift is supported by safe habits off shift.

 

Building a Culture of Safety – Not Just Compliance

 

It’s easy to talk about policies and procedures, but a genuine safety culture is built on trust, leadership, and daily practice.

At Labourpower, we’ve made safety part of our DNA by:

  • Embedding HSEQ inductions into every onboarding process.
  • Running regular toolbox talks with labour hire staff across client sites.
  • Leveraging technology and reporting tools to monitor hazards in real time.
  • Providing mental health support to ensure psychological safety is valued just as highly as physical safety.

In essence, safety is not just a rulebook we hand to employees – it’s a shared value that drives everything we do.

 

The Current Challenges in Recruitment & Labour Hire

 

In 2025, the recruitment and labour hire industry faces some pressing safety challenges, for example:

  • Fatigue management – with shift work and high-demand environments, ensuring workers are rested and fit for duty remains a top priority.
  • Manual handling injuries – still one of the biggest risks in warehousing, logistics, and manufacturing.
  • Workforce diversity – adapting safety programs for a multicultural workforce, ensuring training is clear, inclusive, and effective.
  • Psychosocial hazards – stress, workload, and bullying are emerging as major factors impacting staff wellbeing, reinforced by updated WHS regulations.

By staying ahead of these challenges, Labourpower ensures that our clients receive not only skilled staff but also safe, supported staff.

 

Why Safety Matters to Everyone? Clients, Candidates & Communities

 

For clients, safety means fewer disruptions, lower costs, and a stronger brand reputation.
For candidates, it means confidence, security, and the knowledge that their employer values them.
Most importantly, for the community, it means families know their loved ones come home safe every day.

At Labourpower, we take pride in being more than a labour hire agency – we are workforce safety partners.

 

Safe Work Month 2025 – Call to Action

 

This Safe Work Month, we encourage every business leader, site supervisor, and employee to ask themselves:

What can I do today to make my workplace safer tomorrow?

At Labourpower, we will continue to lead by example, investing in safety, embedding strong practices, and reminding our people that Safety Goes 24/7. Because in the end, nothing matters more than ensuring every person who puts on the Labourpower uniform returns home safe, every single day.

 

Plan of Action

 

Safe Work Australia has structured the month around a four-tiered risk-management framework, with a different focus each week:

  1. Identify Hazards
  2. Assess Risks
  3. Control Risks
  4. Review Controls

 

Week 1: Identify Hazards

In recruitment, this process begins with matching. We map client environments, site conditions, and candidate capabilities through pre-start assessments and site inductions, identifying potential hazards early.

Week 2: Assess Risks

Not all hazards pose the same risk. Therefore, we evaluate the likelihood and severity, prioritising high-impact areas—such as forklift zones, confined spaces, and manual handling—before placements begin.

Week 3: Control Risks

Here’s where we act, for instance:

  • Deploy appropriate PPE (helmets, visibility, gloves).
  • Provide site-specific training, including safe forklift operation and hazard reporting through digital tools like our Labourpower App.

Week 4: Review Controls

Safety isn’t a set-and-forget checklist. Consequently, we conduct regular safety audits and toolbox talks, ensuring controls remain effective and evolve with the worksite.

 

Hot WHS Trends in 2025

 

  • Digital Risk Management: Regulators are scrutinising how technology is used for hazard identification and worker communication. Accordingly, employers must ensure tools facilitate real-time reporting without distraction.
  • Psychosocial Safety: Burnout and mental strain are now acknowledged hazards. We integrate psychological risk controls, Peer SafeTea sessions, and mental health awareness during NSWM.
  • Behaviour-Based Safety: Inspired by initiatives like Daracon’s BBS program, we reinforce safe behaviour through leadership visibility, positive reinforcement, and worker feedback loops.

 

Safe Work Month – How You Can Take Action

 

A Blueprint for Safety

Strategy Action Step
Leverage Safe Work Australia Resources Utilise their Canva toolkits, posters, SafeTea event ideas, and social media tiles to reinforce safety visually.
SafeTea Toolbox Talk Host a safety-themed morning tea with site-specific discussions to spark meaningful engagement.
Worker Involvement Engage workers in hazard hunts and quick risk-spotting competitions to reinforce ownership and accountability.
Psychosocial Health Check Offer brief mental wellbeing check-ins, guided by EAP/safety advisors.
Digital Audits Share workplace safety survey links via your internal network to gather quick feedback and gain valuable risk insights.

 

With 30+ years in safety leadership, I’ve seen firsthand that safety is rarely the most visible aspect—until it’s missing. National Safe Work Month 2025 isn’t just a calendar entry. It’s a national reminder that safety must come first in every shift, every job, every day.

Let’s make safety real, practical, and universal. Because every Australian deserves to return home safely every day.

– Barry Geaitani, National HSEQ Manager

“SAY YES TO YOU” A FATHER’S PERSPECTIVE ON JEAN HAILES WOMEN’S HEALTH WEEK

Posted on by Laurie Innerst

This Women’s Health Week, we sat down with our Managing Director, Luke Webber, to discuss the personal significance of this year’s campaign theme, “Say yes to you”, as both a leader and a father. We hope that you enjoy our meaningful conversation and embrace the message to prioritise women’s health and wellbeing (and take action!) – whether for yourself or the important women in your life.

 

“I want Labourpower’s community of candidates, clients and colleagues to feel supported in these choices. Saying yes does not just help women maintain good health. It strengthens families, enriches workplaces and nurtures communities. ” – Luke Webber

 

Each year, from 1 to 5 September, Australia marks Jean Hailes Women’s Health Week. It is a time when we devote ourselves to conversations, actions and awareness that support the health and wellbeing of women, girls and gender-diverse people. This year’s theme, “Say yes to you”, calls us all to pause and put ourselves first for once. It is a powerful reminder of what truly matters: reclaiming time, energy and intention for our own health. (jeanhailes.org.au)

 

HOW LABOURPOWER WILL SAY YES TO YOU!

 

At Labourpower, we are committed to being more than a recruitment service. We want to embody care, respect and empowerment in the workplace. To honour Jean Hailes Women’s Health Week, here is how we will stand with women:

  • We will share reminders on LinkedIn, echoing the week’s message so that our candidates, staff, and clients can pause, reflect and act.
  • We will encourage open conversations, perhaps over a coffee or Zoom catch-up, about health, wellbeing and the barriers women face.
  • We will make available Jean Hailes resources such as fact sheets, posters and tips to inform and support everyone’s health journeys.
  • We invite our community to host or attend local events, such as webinars, walks or wellbeing expos, all designed to encourage saying yes to women’s health.

MEET OUR NEW STATE MANAGER IN VICTORIA!

Posted on by Laurie Innerst

Get to know our new State Manager in Victoria – Leanne! She is the perfect person to lead our growing team and has a terrific sense of nurturing family – at work and home, including four-legged friends. We are proud of Leanne and thrilled to have filled our VIC state leadership role with an internal promotion. We can’t wait to see what she and her team accomplish next!

 

Q & A WITH LEANNE

 

Tell us a fun fact about yourself – something that might be surprising!

I have multiple animals – starting with a lizard called Toothless, inspired by How to Train Your Dragon (my daughter’s idea). I also have a clever British Blue Shorthaired cat named Misty who uses the human toilet, knows how to shake hands and rings a bell when she wants a treat (which can be very annoying)! Our family also includes 100 fish and three Guinea pigs called Max, Polly and Star.

Why did you choose Labourpower, and when did you join the team?

I started during COVID Stage 4 Lockdown (September 2020) based on an offer from Terry, who told me all about Labourpower. She raved about the work-life balance, benefits, culture and all the amazing things the company offers. So, I needed to see what she was talking about for myself!

What have been the different roles you have held/locations worked at Labourpower?

I’ve only had two roles at Labourpower. The first was Team Lead at the Mulgrave office, and I am now State Manager for Laverton and Mulgrave (so the whole of VIC).

What do you enjoy most about being part of the Labourpower family?

The thing I love the most is the sense of family. Labourpower has multiple employees who have tenure over 5-10 years, demonstrating the amazing culture and benefits of working here. Otherwise, they wouldn’t stay this long!

I also love the Webbers. They work with us side by side, regardless of their positions, when they could easily take a back seat. Luke, Andrew and Zac are among all of the day-to-day activities. They truly demonstrate the dedication and drive each and every employee strives to achieve – it’s very motivating!

What are you most looking forward to in your new role?

I want to focus on building the state as one team rather than two. Because we have two different offices, they can easily become divided and operate individually. However, I want this to change to create more significant growth for all my team members.

LABOURPOWER RECOGNISED FOR INDUSTRY-LEADING TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION

Posted on by Laurie Innerst

Innovation is one of our core values, and so we are thrilled to have been recognised as one of five finalists for the 2021 SEEK Sara Most Innovative Agency of the Year award!

At Labourpower, innovation means:

“We are bold, adaptable, and take risks in the development and application of new ways of working. We reflect, we learn, and we leave things better than we found them.”

This approach toward leveraging technology has enabled us to thrive during challenging times and deliver increasingly efficient solutions and satisfying experiences to our clients and candidates.

Over the past two years, our team has focused on developing leading in-house technology automating the recruitment process to help match the right candidates to the right jobs faster – while ensuring a user-friendly experience, compliance, and scalability.

We continuously look for opportunities to streamline the end-to-end recruitment process. From screening and onboarding to matching our candidates with roles and shifts that are a great fit, we strive to connect people and businesses with the work they need in real-time.

Keep reading to learn more about three of our most innovative initiatives designed to modernise the recruitment process:

  • Labourpower Online Rostering & Ordering System (Client application)
  • Labourpower App (Candidate application)
  • Onboarding & Screening with Scarlett (AI Technology)

 

ONLINE ORDERING & ROSTERING SYSTEM

 

We believe that all clients should have direct access to compliant candidate pools and be able to manage their rostering requirements with complete visibility of costings before submitting staffing orders.

In a candidate short market and uncertain times across many different business sectors, the requirement to scale up and down through an online self-service system is more important than ever. Our clients can now use our secure rostering and ordering system to request candidates daily and weekly at their convenience.

With access to a compliant pool of 15,000+ candidates, our clients and/or Recruitment Consultants have a couple of options to fill positions. They can select individuals who meet skill requirements or choose to have our proprietary system dynamically request appropriate candidates to accept live published roles via the Labourpower App.

Online Support System capabilities:

  • Creating a daily or weekly roster across all required job specifications
  • Saving weekly roster templates
  • Tracking and modifying existing orders
  • Access to over 15,000 compliant candidates across Australia
  • Approximate labour-hire costs
  • Tracking time and attendance
  • Reporting from all worked hours

 

LABOURPOWER APP

 

Finding work has never been easier with the Labourpower App! With over 12,000 active users and thousands of live jobs posted daily, we are putting information at fingertips and matching our best jobs to the right candidates in real-time.

Our candidates work around the clock across Australia. Now they can secure work 24/7 with the push of a button and enjoy the flexibility to choose shifts that best suit their schedules.

The app also provides a handy reference for confirmed shifts – including time and location details with map integration. Notably, multiple app features serve to help make sure that pay is on time and correct. Signing in and out of shifts with the app captures hours worked accurately, and our candidates have visibility to review their payslip history conveniently and securely.

With the Labourpower App, our candidates can:

  • Gain access to the newest opportunities we have to offer
  • Select shifts and create ideal schedules
  • View all confirmed rostering information in one place
  • Sign in and out of shifts easily
  • Review payslip history, helping to ensure pay is correct

 

SCARLETT – AI TECHNOLOGY

 

Before job placement, the end-to-end candidate onboarding process – including collecting critical data, documentation, and screening to determine suitability – presents multiple opportunities to save time and reduce human error through automation.

Labourpower has successfully incorporated Artificial Intelligence (AI ChatBot technology) to enhance our service delivery and help our candidates get to work faster.

Our candidates can begin exploring opportunities any time of day with Scarlett. First, she performs initial screening and determines suitability for various roles. She subsequently applies the information gathered to manage candidates through the onboarding process.

Over time, Scarlett has evolved to broaden her responsibilities. She has been vital to our COVID safety efforts – gathering details and monitoring vaccination status to guarantee compliance.

Scarlett saves our recruitment team substantial working hours through her efficient admin and 24/7 availability.

Since her introduction in October 2020, Scarlett has:

  • Screened 33,500 candidates across 77 jobs
  • Matched 27,000 candidates
  • Connected with 6505 candidates re: vaccination status
  • Worked 11,200 hours!

 

 

“We like to think of ourselves as a technology company in recruitment, and not a recruitment company that has a focus on technology.” – Andrew Webber, CTO

 

At Labourpower, we constantly invest in technology to make it easier for our clients to do business with us. We believe that our trio of new technologies are making a real difference helping to connect our candidates with great jobs and giving our clients a competitive edge in a tight market. Automation allows us to match requirements in real-time, ensure compliance, and enable our business to scale deftly.

As technology improves efficiency, our Recruitment team has more time to focus on the rewarding and essential work of nurturing client relationships, candidate care, personal and business development. Ultimately, our ongoing investment in technology is an investment in people, growth and what we can achieve together!

SCARLETT HAS JOINED OUR COVID SAFETY TEAM!

Posted on by Laurie Innerst

A large proportion of our Labourpower family lives and works in areas deeply impacted by the ongoing pandemic. During this challenging time, the safety and well-being of our team are our top priority. We are always looking for better ways to work and leverage technology, and COVID safety is no exception.

That’s why we are happy to share Scarlett has a new role, and feedback from candidates is that she is making a meaningful difference!

LEVERAGING TECHNOLOGY TO GUARANTEE COMPLIANCE AND SAVE TIME

 

Scarlett is gathering details and tracking vaccination status

We’re using technology to swiftly reach out and connect with our team to gather details around their vaccination status. Scarlett is helping us comply with NSW and QLD requirements to guarantee our candidates’ vaccination status meets the needs of our clients, particularly within LGAs of concern.

Of the 3,300+ candidates Scarlett has reached, 80% have had their 1st or 2nd shots. Excellent news for the safety and availability of our talent pool and our clients that need great people!

For our candidates that are not yet vaccinated, Scarlett records their intent to be vaccinated and timing so she can follow up. She also makes a note of candidates that do not plan to be vaccinated. This system helps ensure our information is current and only appropriate candidates are considered and placed within LGAs of concern.

Scarlett is helping our team focus on filling essential roles

Through her efficient admin and 24/7 availability, Scarlett is saving our recruitment team substantial working hours. She is freeing up our recruiters to focus on matching the best candidates to the right jobs. We have a strong demand for essential workers, especially in LGAs of concern, and Scarlett is helping us fill roles faster.

 

ENSURING COVID SAFETY FOR OUR PEOPLE, WORKPLACES AND BUSINESS CONTINUITY

 

Leveraging technology to meet vaccination requirements quickly and accurately is just one of the ways we are doing our best to ensure the safety of our team, workplaces, and business continuity for our clients.

Rapid Antigen Testing

Many of our clients are taking a proactive approach to COVID safety by providing rapid antigen testing onsite. Going above and beyond to prevent positive cases in the workplace is helping to safeguard our community and minimises the risk of suspending operations.

We’re thankful to be working together with fantastic clients, doing their best to protect our candidates’ health and financial well-being.
