LOSING PREVENTION 

​

Safety rules would only matter after someone is hurt or killed. Our Queensland strong safety rules currently allow workers to force action on safety as soon as a risk is identified, and before it can harm someone.

​

 YOUR RIGHT TO STOP UNSAFE WORK 

​

Workers could lose the power to act immediately when facing risks like:

• Silica dust

• Asbestos

• Violence at work

​

 INDUSTRY PROTECTIONS REMOVED 

​

Safety standards for high-risk industries could disappear:

• Theme parks

• Mining & energy

• Forestry & agriculture

• Hospitals & schools

​

 WEAKER ENFORCEMENT 

​

Inspections could happen after incidents, not before. Everyday risks go unchecked.

​

 HEAT STRESS & REAL-WORLD DANGER 

​

In Queensland conditions, weakening protections puts workers at serious risk of injury or death.
