Australia Model Code of Practice: Healthcare and Social Assistance Industry 2.3c: 2.3 Apply good work design from the earliest opportunity

Designing the workplace and work so it is free from hazards is the best way to prevent work-related fatalities, injuries and illnesses, because it addresses root causes and avoids reliance on influencing human behaviour. Good work design should begin as early as possible, for a new task or building, and whenever work or the work environment changes. Consider the work (physical, mental and emotional demands, duration, frequency, complexity, context and systems), the physical environment (workplace, equipment, materials, substances, vehicles, buildings, structures), systems and processes (information technology, business management, products and services, supply chains, human interaction including with patients or customers) and workers (capacities, preferences and needs), and how all of these interact.
