As guest speaker, the Minister for Finance, the Honourable Greg Pearce MLC, briefed the crowd on the arrangements in New South Wales for transitioning from the existing OHS Act to the new WHS Act on 1 January 2012.

The Australian Work Health and Safety Reporter was launched at Freehills' Sydney office as part of National Safe Work Australia Week and was chaired by Senior Australian of the Year, emeritus professor Ron McCallum AO.
