OH&S

   FaBRiC - Winner – Category 2

   ACT Occupational Health and Safety Awards 2006

    Best Solution to an Identified Health and Safety Issue

   FaBRiC recognised there were vulnerabilities for the organisation and employees providing support, particularly for supporting the medical treatment plan. An evaluation of policies, procedures and practices indicated that further work was required to ensure safe work practices were in place. In particular was the need for a risk assessment process to support the medical treatment plan.  Central to this process was the recognition that, although the care was being administered in a home, it was actually a workplace for the carer. Continued review of the OHS processes has led to a greater understanding of potential hazards and risks within the carer’s work environment.
