Safe Work Australia has released the 2026 National Safe Work Month activity kit, providing workplaces with practical activities and discussion prompts to help turn conversations about work health and safety (WHS) into action.
Held each October, National Safe Work Month is an opportunity for workplaces across Australia to prioritise safe and healthy work for all. The 2026 theme safe work is for life highlights that WHS is about more than preventing harm in the moment; it’s about protecting workers’ lives, health and future throughout their working lives.
The activity kit provides a flexible program of weekly activities, videos and discussion guides aligned to the campaign’s focus areas. It can be used in team meetings, toolbox talks, health and safety committee meetings, training sessions or informal get togethers throughout October.
Download the activity kit and visit the National Safe Work Month website for more campaign resources as we count down to October. Use the kit to start conversations, involve workers and take action to create safer, healthier workplaces for life.
