A message from Chief People Officer Anna Phillips:
The health, safety and wellbeing of everyone is our most important priority. Providing a safe environment for our university community is important for the vibrant campus experience we value.

You can find it via the staff intranet page under ‘Human Resources’, or simply search for ‘Wellbeing matters’ using the search function on the staff home page.
The wellbeing of our university community is also supported by our WHS action plan.
