SafeWork NSW is part of the Better Regulation Division (BRD) within the Department of Customer Service. BRD brings together a range of regulators in NSW.

BRD’s vision is to be Australia’s most trusted and customer-centric regulators.

Its purpose is to make NSW safer, fairer and more productive for consumers, workers and businesses.

This document sets out the regulatory priorities for SafeWork NSW in 2023. Another set of regulatory priorities has been developed for NSW Fair Trading. Both have been informed by stakeholder feedback and data analysis.

The SafeWork NSW and the NSW Fair Trading regulatory priorities will be targeted as joint initiatives where appropriate.
