Build Up Tassie

Build Up Tassie is the exciting new project of Social Impact Program with Centacare Evolve Housing. We are supporting a crew of young people in Hobart's Northern suburbs to join the construction and building industry. We are providing one on one support and training, linking them to opportunities in employment, work experience and volunteering and empowering them to build their future. We are partnering with Wilson Homes to build 400 houses. Help us Build a House, Build a Life, Build a Future!

Session 7 - Safety on a Construction Site

The crew found the session on Safety on a construction site and construction related safety very useful. It also made everyone think about their actions and consequences. Roy Ormerod who presented to our crew has been a consultant on safety to Wilson Homes and a former State OH & S Representative.

We all need to think about what precautions we put in place to make our work environment a safe place for everyone. Roy told real stories about injuries in construction from across Tasmania and the learnings for individuals and organisations. THANKS ROY!

When we came up with the Build Up Tassie concept and spoke to different contractors in contruction they highlighted this topic as a critical one for our young people to learn about and understand. The session was held at the fantastic Trade Training Centre.
