264BInjury prevention measures undertaken by WorkSafe and funded by Corporation or jointly undertaken
This section applies to injury prevention measures that are—
- jointly undertaken by the Corporation and WorkSafe; or
- undertaken by WorkSafe and partly or wholly funded by the Corporation.
Before measures to which this section applies commence, the Corporation and WorkSafe must enter into 1 or more written agreements that specify—
- how the measures—
- are likely to result in a cost-effective reduction in actual or projected levy rates in the Work Account; and
- are consistent with the Health and Safety at Work Strategy published under section 195 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015; and
- are consistent with the Corporation's priorities for injury prevention measures relating to the Work Account; and
- are likely to result in a cost-effective reduction in actual or projected levy rates in the Work Account; and
- the amount of funding to be provided by the Corporation and by WorkSafe; and
- how and when that funding will be provided; and
- how the measures will be evaluated, including the key performance indicators to be used and the expected outcomes; and
- any requirements for reporting between the agencies.
If funding for injury prevention measures undertaken by WorkSafe is to be provided by the Corporation, the agreement may also provide that the Corporation may cease providing funding if it is satisfied that—
- key performance indicators are not being met; or
- expected outcomes are not being achieved.
