This week the 36th national conference for the Asia Pacific Occupational Safety & Health Organization (APOSHO) was held in Melbourne, Australia. Given that occupational health and safety (OHS) conferences are still finding their feet, the first day of the conference was informative but with some problems. An auditor might say there were plenty of opportunities for improvement.
Some concerns illustrate potential cultural challenges in the year prior to Australia hosting the next World Congress on Safety and Health at Work in Sydney in November 2023, in particular parochialism and patronisation.
