Work-related injuries and illnesses represent a huge cost to workers, their families, employers and society as a whole.

Gallagher Bassett (GB) recently released new posters on myGB Poster Designer, an online tool that helps employers promote health and safety in their workplace using dozens of customisable posters.

The newly released posters have been designed by GB’s team of health and safety experts.

They span a number of industries as well as health and safety topics, including:

• It’s Okay to Ask for Help
• Control Risks from Manual Handling
• Mental Health Matters
• Prevent Fatigue at Work
• Prevent Muscle Strains
• Prevent Sharps Injury
• Treating Muscle Strains
• Reduce the Risk of Developing a Repetitive Strain Injury
• Skin Protection 101

Safe Work Australia estimates that work-related injuries and diseases cost the Australian economy more than $61.8 billion. Many of these workplace injuries can be avoided through improved employee education and communication.
