SafeWork NSW is inviting employers, workers, industry and the wider community to comment on its Annual Regulatory Statement and regulatory priorities for 2026–27. Feedback closes on 29 May 2026.
The regulatory priorities form part of SafeWork NSW’s Annual Regulatory Statement and cover the financial year beginning on 1 July 2026.
The consultation aims to help shape priorities that reflect industry needs, protect workers and keep the community safe. Feedback will also support SafeWork NSW’s 2024–2029 strategic plan.
SafeWork Commissioner Janet Schorer said: “We want to hear from workers, employers, unions and industry associations from all sectors, and anyone with an opinion on health and safety at work.”
“This will allow SafeWork NSW to focus resources on areas with the highest risks and where we can have the greatest impact on preventing harm and harassment in the workplace.”
The consultation paper and survey are available through the Have Your Say website, with submissions closing on 29 May 2026.
