IR/OHS Alert - Multiple-choice quiz fails safety training test: FWC

A commission has overturned the dismissal of a worker who neglected to report a near miss until the day after it occurred, highlighting that employers have a responsibility to help workers comply with safety obligations.

Fair Work Commissioner Paula Spencer also criticised Steggles Pty Ltd's reliance on the "refresher" on safety procedures it provided the worker five months before the incident, finding this could not be considered "training".
