Why Safe
Principals?
"Safe" implies protection and feeling relieved and
comfortable.
We know just how important it is to achieve safety and
protection for staff, students and visitors from any hazards in the
workplace so that the real job of schools - teaching and learning -
can be implemented.
Principals are the site managers of their schools under
Australian OHS Legislation and as such are "where the buck
stops".
Steve and Dan are very
much aware of the issues faced by
Principals in the day to day management of their particular
environment.
By providing school Principals
with expert consultancy and advice, Steve and Dan are able to help
them implement safety principles in their workplaces. This results
in a school with a culture of safety and care for everyone as well
as fulfilling the legal obligations of OHS legislation. Hence the
business name "Safe
Principals".

Motto
Steve and Dan offer a helping hand
- figuratively throwing them a lifebuoy. Principals
have a multitude of concerns to sort out daily and are in charge of
a microcosm at their school site. We offer a helping hand -
figuratively throwing them a lifebuoy! - so that Principals do not
feel like they are "up to their neck in it" or overwhelmed by just
one more major issue to deal with - OHS compliance.
Principals and staff want to get
on with their main game - quality teaching. Ours input for one, two
or three days enables them to do just that. By sharing our wealth
of knowledge and experience on safety matters, we rescue
Principals from what can often seem a quagmire of OHS
mandatory requirements.
