WorkCover—staff
(Question No 1378)

Mr Smyth asked the Minister for Industrial Relations, upon notice, on 10 March 2004:

1. How many people are currently employed in the WorkCover Information and Education Unit;

2. Are there any plans to close or reduce the operations of this unit;

3. How many (a) workplace visits have taken place and (b) education sessions been held, each month, for the last six months.

Ms Gallagher: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

1. No staff are employed in the Information and Education Unit, as this unit ceased to exist in early January 2004. The former unit’s functions were reallocated to other WorkCover sections. WorkCover has adopted a new communications and education strategy aimed at significantly expanding the number of staff involved in education activities. The strategy uses networks of stakeholders and other Government agencies to enhance communications with the business community. Education activities are now undertaken by inspectors and other staff in WorkCover’s core functional areas of occupational health and safety, workers compensation and dangerous goods, depending on the subject matter
