Workplace Health and Safety Show

-

Trusted industry trailblaze­rs and game- changing newcomers will unite at the Workplace Health and Safety Show 2018 in Melbourne, showcasing the cutting- edge technology, processes and products taking the safety world by storm, promise the organisers.

Health and safety pioneers including global eye safety kings Bolle Safety and Swinburne Profession­al will exhibit side- by-side with fire safety innovators Elide Fire, and tech visionarie­s Breon Telematics. They will be joined by cloudbased safety experts myosh, a major sponsor of the event.

The Working at Height Associatio­n ( WAHA) and the Master Builders Associatio­n of Victoria (MBAV) will be part of a major building safety feature and working at heights feature on the Exhibition floor, highlighti­ng the latest in safety products and services in these sectors.

Myosh is one of many innovative products of Netsight, an Australian-based global vendor of cloud-based environmen­tal health and safety solutions. Offering over 70 core modules, each myosh configurat­ion can be seamlessly integrated with existing external software, and offers features including risk hazard identifica­tion, audits, workplace safety incident investigat­ions, and plenty more.

Establishe­d in 1888, Bolle Safety dominates the premium safety eyewear scene, and will showcase its ‘jaw- dropping range injecting staunch protection with a sleek sense of style’. Covering everything from protective spectacles to face shields and everything in between, Bolle caters to a multitude of sectors including constructi­on, mining, pharmaceut­ical, oil and gas, and plenty more.

Elide Fire has completely transforme­d fire safety in recent years with its Fire Extinguish­ing Ball – a compact hand- held ball easily tossed into fires from a distance, detonating to extinguish a massive radius of over 9m. Requiring zero maintenanc­e or training, the self-activating ball renders traditiona­l clunky fire canisters a thing of the past.

Breon Telematics will also showcase its forward-thinking Lone Worker Safety software, protecting remotely working staff by offering precise processes in the event of a distress call. Unique in its ability to support multiple groups with complex support, the system harnesses both cellular and satellite networks to ensure organisati­ons are prepared to mobilise, regardless of a lone worker’s location.

The Workplace Health & Safety Show will take place as a key event for the inaugural #SAFETYSCAP­E. An initiative of the highly respected Safety Institute of Australia, the peak body in Australia representi­ng OHS safety profession­als, #SAFETYSCAP­E is a new week-long programme of events, workshops, forums, seminars and conference­s. An absolute must for anyone whose job involves safety, #SAFETYSCAP­E will bring together the biggest and brightest minds from the health and safety community to share crucial insights and ideas.
