Contribute to building a safe, inclusive and resilient workforce

Your insights are needed to help guide how the jobs and skills system can better support a safer, more inclusive and resilient workforce. 

Skills Insight is exploring this topic in response to increasing interest in how the system can adapt to shifting workforce conditions across the agribusiness, fibre, furnishing, food, and animal and environmental care industries.

You’re invited to help shape how this work progresses.

The safe, inclusive and resilient workforce consultation paper proposes actions against four priorities identified in the Workforce Plan 2025-2026: leadership, skills, accessibility and data and evidence. For each action, we raise a consultation question to gather your input. We also seek your feedback on a list of potential recommendations for addressing systemic issues and enabling better safety and wellbeing outcomes.

Feedback will be collected from 28 January to 3 March. Your input will inform the Workforce Plan to be submitted to Department of Employment and Workplace Relations (DEWR) on 30 April 2026.
