The SafeWork NSW Inspector Vocational Advisory Group has been formed.

Chair of the group, Maree Davidson, said the agency faces a restructure management plan in the near future and she is “looking forward to working with members” for the best outcome possible.

Industrial Manager representing SafeWork, Julie-Ann Bond, welcomed the formation of the new body.

“It is fantastic to have new Delegates with the new changes on the horizon for SafeWork NSW,” she said. “The PSA will work with these motivated members for real, positive change.”

In June 2024, Ms Davidson joined PSA staff and fellow Delegates Gavin Parker, Tony McKay and Dave Chamings to map out the significant changes and workplace issues at SafeWork along with other concerns raised by members.

“Our members in SafeWork NSW are true Champions of the State,” said PSA General Secretary Stewart Little. “Their work has contributed to a 35 per cent decrease in workplace fatalities in our state over the past 10 years.

“We look forward to working with the new vocational group to get better outcomes for our members.”
