A partnership to prevent workplace injuries

A safe working environment matters not only to staff, but it is a management issue for every employer.

CRS Australia works with many employers to address safety and injury issues in the workplace.

‘We can find solutions that prevent injury in the first place,’ says Claire, CRS Australia’s staff member in Nhulunbuy, Northern Territory.

Alcan Gove is one company CRS Australia has been working with over the past seven years.

Alcan Gove manages a bauxite and alumina refinery located on the Gove Peninsula on the east coast of the Gulf of Carpentaria in the Northern Territory. The nearby township of Nhulunbuy was purpose built to support the refinery and has a population of around 4000.

Claire works with Alcan Gove to make the refinery safe and provides rehabilitation case management. This includes helping injured workers get back to work, as well as workplace assessments and injury prevention education.

Alcan Gove’s Occupational Health and Safety Manager, Jenny Mills, says the strong relationship with CRS Australia is based on the fact that staff like Claire live and work in the community.

‘Having someone in the local community is really important to us. It helps to gain respect from the workers because CRS Australia understands the community, the culture and the unique environment of the remote location,’ says Jenny.

‘It’s the flexibility that I really like. CRS Australia is responsive, professional and very resourceful,’ says Jenny.

The relationship is a true partnership. For Claire, it’s a combination of professional satisfaction and a positive contribution to the local community in which she lives.

‘I have enjoyed the experience of meeting staff in the refinery and mine sites and being able to provide practical recommendations to help them,’ Claire says.
