Acknowledged, too, as being Australia’s largest construction contractor, the company has experienced incredible growth over the past 60 years. I am proud of the business evolution and legacy of excellence in infrastructure delivery across Australia. In reviewing our history, a key theme has been the contribution of outstanding people. When I purchased the company in 1991 there were no tangible assets in the business. Our strength was our people and the skill, creativity and innovation that they brought into the business. In the nine years of Leighton Holdings ownership, we have had outstanding leaders – most recently Bill Wild and David Stewart – who have led the company on the road to financial strength and sustainability, growing turnover from $400,000 in 2000 to $3.7 billion in 2009. I would like to thank David Stewart for his contribution to John Holland, and his commitment as Group Managing Director over the past three years. Glenn Palin, incoming Group Managing Director, has been with the company for 16 years, during that time demonstrating a commitment to safety, people and performance. I personally remember many site safety visits with him over the years and welcome him to his new role. 9 chairmaN’S REPOrt Our commitment to our 4Ps continues over the year.

Nestor Graduate Diploma in Defence Management (University of Canberra) Graduate Certificate in Safety Leadership (Griffith University) School of Humanities, Languages and Social Science Griffith University A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts Research September 2019 PRELIMINARIES Abstract… What is the effect of occupational health and safety regulator intervention on the Australian Army? Purpose: The purpose of this research was to investigate how Regulator intervention influenced the Australian Army’s behavioural compliance, after changes to OHS legislation, and how outcome performance could be measured. Military members are trained for brinkmanship, to positively navigate the edge between recklessness and risk avoidance, sometimes with catastrophic consequences. The removal of Crown exemption from Commonwealth OHS legislation in 2004 was followed by a series of prosecutions of the Australian Defence Force (ADF), particularly the Australian Army, for death and serious injury in training. This provided a unique opportunity to study what interventions are most effective, how regulator intervention prevents harm, and how that could be measured in a high-risk work environment.

  • Comcare National Work Health and Safety Awards Program
    Awards Program 18 May 2021 Welcome Welcome to the 2021 Comcare National Work Health and Safety Awards These prestigious Awards highlight the diversity of the Comcare scheme that covers some 400,000 workers and 200 employers across a very broad range of occupation types and risk profiles. We had planned to celebrate the awards as part of the Comcare National Conference, however with the travel situation across Australia remaining unpredictable we decided to celebrate the incredible achievements of our award finalists virtually. The finalists this year all highlight outstanding success in ‘Creating a safer workplace together’ under the Comcare National Conference theme and demonstrate the opportunity that exists to make significant impacts in enabling safe and healthy work. It’s important that we celebrate and reward leadership achievements like the ones we are showcasing to inspire others to prevent and reduce injury and harm in the workplace. Thank you to everyone who nominated and congratulations to the winners and finalists. The entries show great commitment at both the organisational and individual levels and it has been great to see such innovative and positive initiatives across the scheme – particularly during these challenging times. We are also grateful to the members of the judging panels, including members of the Safety, Rehabilitation and Compensation Commission, Comcare staff and industry experts. I encourage you and your organisation to consider nominating for the awards in the future – we could be celebrating you at the next awards presentation. Enjoy the presentation and we look forward to recognising all winners and finalists in person at the 2022 Comcare National Conference.
