At WFR, we love hearing how our programs make a difference.

Ryan has been involved in WFR programs across several companies, including Asahi Beverages, Lindt & Sprรผngli, and Goodman Fielder. Our WWS specialist, Jasmine Stretton, has had the privilege of delivering these programs to Ryan at each workplace at some point. Weโ€™re glad to hear he enjoyed the session and felt that it was equally well-received by everyone in attendance.

Week 4: Review safety controls

Controls only work if theyโ€™re effective - thatโ€™s why reviewing them regularly is a key part of risk management. Before something goes wrong!

โ–ช๏ธ Check that safety procedures are being followed
โ–ช๏ธ Talk with your workers and get their feedback
โ–ช๏ธ Monitor incidents to see if risks are reducing
โ–ช๏ธ Ensure any new hazards are managed

Creating a culture where safety is a priority and workers feel comfortable raising concerns helps make every workplace safer.

This is a staggering figure when symptoms of fatigue can be well managed through healthy and conscious practices. Small changes, like planning adequate breaks, maintaining healthy sleep routines, and healthy diet options, can really make a life-saving difference.

Letโ€™s stay alert, stay safe, and support each other to make wellbeing a priority.

Jasmine and Sarah at the Asahi Beverages warehouse applying our ๐—”๐—œ๐—  principles in the team's daily tasks. Here we filmed the team member performing a lift, reviewed the footage together, and coached him on the safest technique.

The picker was highly receptive, and Sarah enjoyed the opportunity to build rapport while reinforcing safety.

This is a great example of how proactive coaching and real-time feedback can foster a safer, more collaborative work environment.

Our Workplace Wellbeing Programs are delivered to teams for early screening and educate simple healthy practices to build awareness and keep your crew healthy.

While WFR teams up across all sectors, the Australian freight transport industry faces a significantly higher risk of cardiovascular disease. Truck driving is one of the most hazardous occupations, with drivers 13 times more likely to die at work compared to other workers. This makes it especially important for drivers to understand the benefits of health screenings - many conditions can be detected early and are manageable with the right support.

๐Ÿ‘‡These risks are what WFR is on a mission to help reduce;
โ–ช๏ธ 5.3% of drivers reported cardiovascular disease, with severe heart attacks
โ–ช๏ธ A survey revealed that 73% of drivers would benefit from improved health interventions
โ–ช๏ธ Over half of drivers are categorised as obese
โ–ช๏ธ High rates of cigarette smoking is a factor in development of CVD
โ–ช๏ธ Truck drivers who suffer episodes while driving pose great risk to themselves and other motorists

Healthy Heads in Trucks & Sheds do amazing work in this sector by touring around the country and providing information and resources for truckies.
We are proud partners supporting Healthy Heads on their mission to keep the industry ticking along.

โ€œAre you OK?โ€ is a question we can ask any day of the year - not just today. But with busy lives and competing priorities, genuine connection can sometimes be difficult.

Thatโ€™s why this year, we asked some of our team: โ€œHow do you stay connected?โ€ Thank you for sharing Max, Michelle, Alycia, Erin, Andrew, and new WWS Cassidy.

Connection looks different for everyone, but it always matters. ๐Ÿ’ฌ

Letโ€™s make time for meaningful conversations in any way that works for you - today and every day.

๐Ÿ’› World Su***de Prevention Day

Workplaces have a duty of care to protect not just physical safety, but also mental health. At WFR, we support businesses with tailor made mental health training and wellbeing solutions to help create safer, healthier workplaces. Our programs are created specifically around your team and business requirements.

Psychosocial hazards like bullying, fatigue, stress, remote work and poor change management can have serious impacts.
A safe workplace means:
๐Ÿ”น Recognising risks
๐Ÿ”น Providing support & resources
๐Ÿ”น Acting early to prevent harm

2025 World Su***de Prevention Day focus is to challenge harmful myths, reduce stigma, and foster open, compassionate conversations about su***de. It is about shifting from silence and misunderstanding to openness, empathy, and support โ€” creating environments where people feel able to speak up and seek help.
