The development of SafeWork SA’s Strategic Plan was among the recommendations of a 2018 evaluation of the practices, policies and procedures of the regulator arm of the Agency conducted by the Hon Bruce Lander QC, Independent Commissioner Against Corruption.
The inaugural 2019-2022 Strategic Plan was launched in 2019.
The 2023-2027 Strategic Plan was launched in October 2022 and sets a clear direction for our activities over the next five years.
The new plan came into effect from 1 January 2023 and aims to help make South Australian workplaces safe through trusted and respected regulation and our core values of professionalism, respect, integrity and service.
Under the 2023-27 Plan, SafeWork SA will:
- be the employer of choice for developing a contemporary workforce
- promote the SafeWork SA brand as a trusted and intelligence-led Regulator who works collaboratively across industry
- be a global leader in regulatory compliance theory and practise and work with stakeholders to transfer knowledge into healthy and safe workplaces
- create a mobile workforce and make it easy for people to interact with us.
