Gaining your Sun Safe Workplace Accreditation

Step 1: Risk assessment:

periodic assessment of the solar UVR exposure risk to all employees.

Step one requires employers to complete a full solar UVR risk assessment which will be used to identify:

  • employees who have a high risk of exposure to solar UVR
  • situations or work systems where high exposure to solar UVR occurs

Resources:

To assist you we have made available a sample risk assessment document that you can download and
use as required. In addition employers should refer to their ‘Sun Safety and Outdoor Workers –
An Employers Guide’ for further support and useful tips.
