    Dozens of companies are seeking more robust and clear health and safety regulation

    Dozens of companies are seeking more robust and clear health and safety regulation


    Sixty one are making a joint submission to the Workplace Relations and Safety Minister for their health and safety review.

    It comes with six recommendations to overhaul the current system to provide support, as well as better guidelines and incentives for good safety practice.

    Z Energy CEO Lindis Jones says the system needs to work for everybody.

    But he says in particular, small and medium businesses need a regulator which provides clarity, not just rules.
