It provides leadership and advice to government, service providers and other organisations on employment, skills, industry training and workforce planning issues on behalf of Queensland’s agriculture industries. It is managed by QFF and works in conjunction with AgForce and its member industries.

Workplace health and safety compliance tool

Did you know that only 3% of Queenslanders work on farms, but almost 30% of workplace deaths happen there? Make sure you meet your WH&S obligations!

The Organisational Systems Benchmarking Tool helps you assess whether you have an effective, systematic approach to managing the areas of work health and safety, worker health and wellbeing, and workers' compensation and return to work.

The tool:

  • gives you the choice to assess one, two or all three of the areas in the workplace
  • enables you to compare your performance anonymously with other businesses across similar industry sectors and sizes; and 
  • provides guidance to help you improve your management of safety, health and wellbeing and workers compensation and return to work.
