Diligence in safety awards

Home > Risk management > Occupational safety and health

Recognising and rewarding OSH performance is an important initiative for you and LGIS. This is done through the Diligence in Safety Awards. This program, developed to reflect the 3 steps to safety program, aims to recognise good performers across the 3 tiers. Using the criteria below, each tier provides an opportunity to be rewarded for your good OSH performance.

Certificate	Criteria	Financial reward
Tier 1 Diligence in Safety Certificate	≥ 90% against Tier 1 Checklist	$1500
Tier 2 Diligence in Safety Certificate	≥ 80% against Tier 2 Checklist	$1500
Tier 3 Silver Diligence in Safety Certificate	≥ 75% against Tier 3 Checklist	$1500
Tier 3 Gold Diligence in Safety Certificate	≥ 90% against Tier 3 Checklist	$3000

At the conclusion of the assessments, you will be informed if you were successful in getting an award. If you are, we will liaise with you to determine a suitable date that the award can be presented to you.

3 steps to safety

Assessing workplace safety practices is an important way for identifying both your strengths and weaknesses when managing safety. LGIS has delivered a program for many years to assist our members to do this. Early in 2015, LGIS undertook a review and has now developed the 3 Steps to Safety program to succeed and further enhance our occupational, safety and health program.

Health surveillance - it’s more than just a doctor’s visit

If your workers use or are exposed to certain types of hazardous substances, they may require health surveillance to ensure their health is not adversely effected.

Working in isolation – do you know where your workers are?

It is Wednesday afternoon and a local government worker is not back yet from performing a work task within a remote area. The worker’s supervisor has not spoken to the worker since he left the workplace at 9.00am and has been unable to make contact via mobile or two-way radio. To send someone out to the worker’s anticipated location will take 90 minutes one-way and would mean traveling at dusk where wildlife can pose a hazard to road users.
