Behaviour, health, and safety standards for Australian workplaces.


WHS Standards was built from what we see happening in workplaces.Most sites already have policies, inductions and training. What they struggle with is behaviour.That’s where we focus.We work with people - educating, mentoring and supporting them to lift their standards. Our courses are built by industry professionals, aligned to workplace expectations, and designed to change how people think, act and perform at work.
What's impacting safety, behaviour and performance
Mental Health & Wellbeing
• Mental ill-health costs Australian workplaces over $70 billion per year in lost productivity and absenteeism.
• Suicide is the leading cause of death for Australians aged 15–44.
Gambling Harm
• Australians lose over $25 billion per year on gambling — the highest losses per capita in the world.
• Problem gambling is linked to higher rates of debt, absenteeism and workplace misconduct.
Alcohol & Drugs
• Around 1 in 10 Australian workers report being affected by alcohol or drugs at work in the past year.
• Alcohol contributes to over 4,500 deaths per year in Australia.
Fatigue, Phones & Distraction
• Distracted work (including phone use) is a major contributor to incidents and near misses in high-risk industries.
• Young adults spend 5–7 hours per day on their phones on average.
Safety & Behaviour
• Human behaviour is a factor in over 80% of workplace incidents.
• Fatigue and impairment are among the top causes of serious injury and fatalities at work.
the WHS standards response
Behavior-focused training
Short, practical modules that target the issue: decision-making, effort, attitude, and cutting corners – not just ticking compliance boxes.
Ongoing mentoring and support
Fortnightly live online mentor sessions to reinforce expectations, talk through scenarios, and keep standards front of mind.
Early identification of risk
Tools and check-ins to spot issues early (fatigue, stress, distraction, gambling harm, alcohol/drug risk) before they turn into incidents, absences, or job loss.
Life and work skills
Build the foundations that show up at work: accountability, time management, communication, emotional control, and financial habits.
Professional intervention when needed
Optional 1-on-1 support with a Workplace Mentor, Safety Officer, or Allied Health (including psychologist) for targeted help when someone is slipping.
