Perth Airport is committed to providing a safe, healthy and productive work environment for all people engaged in Perth Airport activities.

We believe all fatalities, injuries and occupational illnesses are preventable, and we are committed to ensuring everyone returns home safely. We prioritise protecting the health and safety of all our people by planning and managing work to identify and effectively control risks. We comply with all relevant legislative and regulatory requirements and apply responsible standards where specific legal obligations do not exist.

Perth Airport accommodates a broad range of workers, including contractors performing works, airport operators, government agencies, retail tenants, and more. We are dedicated to the health, safety, and wellbeing of all people operating at the airport and maintain specific health and safety requirements for each engagement stream.

All contractors, tenants, and third party service providers working on the Perth Airport estate must meet our Health and Safety Engagement Minimum Requirements. These requirements work alongside relevant legislation and each party's own WHS Management Plan to ensure a safe work environment. These standards outline minimum requirements only; they do not cover all WHS obligations or remove any legal or contractual WHS responsibilities.

These requirements and obligations are outlined in the Health and Safety Engagement Minimum Requirements Standards. Important information about working safely at Perth Airport is detailed below.
