Employing a new worker

Get your workers off to a safe and productive start so they work to live.

A new worker is three times more likely to be injured at work than other workers - they require the safest possible start to their new job.

Make sure you have a safe workplace

Before hiring a new worker you should identify the possible health and safety issues in your business and take action to address them.

Review the job

Writing a job description is a good way for employers to understand the job a new worker will fill. You should consider the risks associated with a job and implement action to address these risks.

Hire the right person

A planned selection process lets employers hire the right worker for a job.
