Workplace Health & Safety Show returns to Melbourne

Workplace Health & Safety Show will return to the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre on 21 and 22 May 2025. The free-to-attend exhibition and conference is dedicated to health and safety, with exhibits, live demos, seminars, workshops and networking for attendees.

Following successful events in 2024, the show organisers anticipate that this year’s event will be even better.

“The key objective of the event is to create workplaces that are safer, healthier and more productive. The Show is evolving. We took on board the feedback we received from industry to address the current challenges they are facing to bring together an event that really caters to their requirements,” said Stephen Blackie, Portfolio Manager, Workplace Health & Safety Show.

The feedback from visitors at last year’s event was overwhelmingly positive, with many enjoying the convenience of being able to explore an extensive array of products and services (designed to reduce worker injuries, illness and fatalities) all under one roof.

“We attracted thousands of attendees and exhibitors to our events last year, from industries such as construction, manufacturing, health care and government. This underscores the strong demand for an industry event of this kind,” Blackie said.

The event includes a program of CPD seminars, workshops and panel discussions that sheds light on new trends, new legislation and industry-best practices, providing attendees with actionable strategies they can implement in their own workplaces.

Other key highlights include:

• Technology in action — exhibitors will be hosting live and interactive demonstrations of their newest innovations.
• 2025 Champions of Safety Awards — recognising the industry’s role models and talented professionals, and showcasing varied career opportunities.
• New Summit programs — targeted half-day summits designed to address industry-specific safety challenges.
• Expert speakers — including Darcy Cooper (WorkWell Program Manager, WorkSafe Victoria), Ian McLeod (Executive Director Strategic Safety, Victorian Infrastructure Delivery Authority), Daryan Rosic (Mental Health Program and Initiative Specialist, Allianz) and Natalie Flatt (Chief Mental Health Officer, Super Friend & Co-founder, Connect Psych Services).

Workplace Health & Safety Show will take place at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre from 21–22 May 2025, and at The Dome, Sydney Showground, Sydney Olympic Park from 22–23 October 2025.
