About SIWA Limited
 

Welcome to SIWA Limited

Australia’s first professional, National member driven occupational health and safety institute is dedicated to providing professional support for, and service to, persons and corporate entities. To lead safety enhancement 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.


The Australian Institute for Astute Occupational Safety and Health Professionals (OHS)

SIWA Limited engages with Universities and other learning institutes to develop industry relevant qualification courses. If you are looking for a truly Professional society to support your College or University study and research interests then become a member now. SIWA Limited provides complimentary membership to full time students of public and private colleges and institutes.

SIWA Limited is building a comprehensive library of OHS knowledge, experience and resources defining good industry practices, standards and benchmarks to directly benefit members.


SIWA Limited is the only Australian Institute supporting and promoting Occupational Health and Safety Practitioners

SIWA Limited is committed to supporting OSH technicians, Officers and Elected Health and Safety Representatives (HSR’s) in their workplaces through the provision of tools and practice standards.


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.
