Webinars
Description:
Royal Life Saving Australia with the support of its members and the National Aquatic Industry Committee are pleased to launch two new resources for the aquatic industry:
- Safe Places to Swim: The State of Safety at Australian Aquatic Facilities Report 2024; and
- The National Aquatic Workforce Framework (Draft for consultation)
These two exciting initiatives are intended to further commitments to the Australian Water Safety Strategy 2030 which has two goals for Aquatic Facilities: 1) increase the availability & sustainability of aquatic facilities; and 2) reduce drowning in aquatic facilities by 50%.
Both bodies of work build on extensive research, collaboration and consultation with industry leadership and workers going back over a decade, and mark significant milestones in progress.
The workforce framework's goals are to highlight and advocate a variety of career pathways offered in aquatic facilities, identify and map workforce capabilities across various job roles and enhance the sector's safety, quality, and consistency by emphasising the importance of safety and best practice in training and professional development.
The state of industry safety report gathers data across the RLSSA Fatal Drowning Database, Aquatic Facility Safety Assessment database and incident, rescue and injury data collected from major operators.
Both bodies of work seek to strengthen the industry by lifting standards and highlighting where the industry can invest in improvements.
Royal Life Saving Australia will host this lunchtime webinar on 22nd May. Registration is essential.
We are pleased to be joined by an industry leadership panel of presenters and speakers (TBC).
