The Occupational Health & Safety Act (OHS Act) has been updated with stricter penalties for failing to report workplace incidents to WorkSafe. The maximum fine for individuals has increased from $9,514 to $38,056, and for companies from $47,571 to $190,284. Employers should ensure they have clear procedures for reporting incidents to avoid hefty fines. Other changes include broader definitions of "medical treatment" and stricter enforcement powers for inspectors.
