Introduction
The University of Melbourne is committed to providing a safe and healthy working and learning environment for all staff, contractors, students and visitors, and to ensuring its operations do not impact unreasonably on external stakeholders. However, from time to time, internal or external stakeholders may raise concerns or complaints about health & safety matters arising from the University's operations.
The processes detailed on this page are intended to ensure that health & safety feedback is directed to an appropriate recipient and responded to promptly, transparently and effectively.
Health & Safety Issue Resolution Procedure - For Staff
Staff who wish to raise a health and safety issue for resolution should use the Health & Safety Issue Resolution Procedure (UOM 313).
OHS External Feedback Process - For External Stakeholders
This process relates to feedback from external stakeholders about occupational health & safety matters that are under the management and control of the University. External stakeholders include regulatory bodies, suppliers, customers and clients, neighbours and members of the public.
How to Provide Feedback
As an external stakeholder wishing to offer feedback, you may either:
- raise the matter informally with the University representative (usually a manager or supervisor) responsible;
- if you are unable to reach a resolution through this option, or are unable to identify a responsible representative, then please proceed to the next option.
- raise the matter formally in writing to the General Manager, OHS (email safety-info@unimelb.edu.au or see postal contact details).
When offering feedback, we ask that you provide the following information:
- Your name;
- Your contact details;
- Your relationship to the University of Melbourne;
- The details of the matter you wish to raise, including:
- location, personnel involved and time/date;
