SEAT at WORK

SEAT presenter Robert Spencer with Energex apprentices at Geebung depot.

SEAT at WORK is an ideal way to showcase your organisation’s commitment to safety at the workplace and to raising awareness of, and respect for, people with a disability as part of an equitable community.

SEAT presentations are a powerful way to educate your employees about the importance of Workplace Health and Safety — and further complement an existing zero tolerance to unsafe behaviours and practices at the workplace.

Our presenters – men and women who have a spinal cord injury and use a wheelchair – bravely share how their accidents happened, how their lives have turned upside down and how they overcome obstacles and community attitudes on a daily basis.

We offer two programs:

• one is largely focused on injury prevention and is ideal for people who work in at-risk professions such as the construction, mining, building, utilities and transport sectors, including apprentices and trainees; and
• the other is more focused on disability awareness, showcasing how best to communicate with someone who has a disability to ensure they remain a valued customer or client.

All program fees are invested back into our award-winning injury prevention program that has shared safety messages with more than 1.2 million school children around Queensland. You’ll be helping to keep our kids safe!
