President's Welcome

Welcome to the website of the Australasian University Safety Association. The AUSA is the network of OHS professionals servicing the tertiary education and research sector of Australasia.

The AUSA website provides links to the OHS pages of member organisations and other reputable OHS resources (see Resources).

In addition to the website, the AUSA has an electronic mailing list for communication within the network. This resource allows members to distribute to, or seek information from, other AUSA members on any OHS topic (see Mailing List).

From time to time, the AUSA convenes Special Interest Groups on particular hazard categories or emerging areas of concern (see Special Interest Groups).

The AUSA network is both professional and collegial. Applications for membership from within the sector are welcomed (see membership).
