A Guide to Managing Risk in Australian Playspaces

Play Australia will release the document “A Guide to Managing Risk in Australian Playspaces” at the Melbourne meeting on May 6, and all members attending all meetings will have access to this document.

This document has 2 objectives: to clearly document the details of the new standard in a coherent form, and to provide a guide on best practice on the management of risk in playspaces in Australia, focussing on the Risk Benefit approach, now well documented overseas and strongly supported by Play Australia.

There will be a cost to attend: $110.00 for PA members, and $220.00 for non-PA members.

(If you are employed by an organisation that is a PA member, then you are eligible for PA member rates).
