The primary role of a HSR is to represent workers on health and safety through ongoing consultation and cooperation between the workers of a work group and the employer.

The HSR Strategy has been developed to encourage and support Health and Safety Representatives (HSRs) in their role.

The handbook provides the opportunity to engage early on with new HSRs and ensure they are aware of their duties and responsibilities.
