Health & Safety Reps

This page is a one-stop-shop for HSRs in the rail industry. 

For help setting up elections, or support addressing a local safety issue, please contact your Organiser or send us an email: safety@rtbuvic.com.au

Support the industry campaign for safer workplaces, remember to encourage all colleagues to send copies of all incident reports to safety@rtbuvic.com.au so we can build our evidence base!
