Australia’s first professional, National member driven occupational health
and safety institute is dedicated to providing professional support for, and

across Australia, SIWA Limited has been established as a ‘not for profit’
public ‘Company Limited by Guarantee’, bound by Australian Corporations law
and ethics.
Vision
Attention to
Occupational Health and Safety across
Australia
has traditionally been widely segregated and without holistic or unity
vision. It is the vision of SIWA Limited to bring together all areas and
fields for a functional networking and sharing of experiences and knowledge.
Through this cooperation, we will together develop a deep
appreciation for where the interactions of each specialty area may impact on
the delivery of improvement outcomes in other specialty areas and so for the
first time in Australian Occupational Safety and Health History, develop
comprehensive and sustainable enhancement of Safety in Workplaces in Australia. This
holistic approach also provides a sound platform for promoting business
continuity and profitability without detriment to the employed.

Occupational Safety and Health Professionals (OHS)

Specialty Support and Promotion of Rehabilitation and Workers Compensation
Professionals and Practitioners
For too long attention to safety in
Australian workplaces has been divided where Occupational Safety and Health
prevention existed on one side of the divide and Workers Compensation and
Rehabilitation on the other. It is our commitment to maximize benefits to
both views through support and promoting shared knowledge and experiences of
both sides.
SIWA Limited is providing a dedicated
specialty organisation for Workers Compensation and Rehabilitation
Professionals and Practitioners. Join now and promote your specialty.
