School and beyond

A range of great online safety resources for students can be found at SafeWork SA. These tests and activities target different age groups and cover a range of industries (including hospitality, office environments, retail, supermarkets) as well as generic activities, and many provide a certificate on completion.

We have used the Hunt the Hazards activity – a highly visual, interactive approach to hazards across many workplaces. Hunt the Hazards is suitable for students in Year 8 and 9, but all the activities would be a terrific addition to any work-placement preparation, allowing students to consolidate their learning.
