This seminar offers a comparative and practical examination of prosecutions under the Workplace Safety and Health Act 2006 (Singapore) and the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (Australia). Johnathan will address the Singapore framework, drawing on his experience as a former prosecutor to explain enforcement priorities, prosecutorial discretion and common pitfalls for defendants. Patrick will cover the Australian regime, sharing insights from defending companies and individuals in serious workplace safety prosecutions and provide an outline of what Singapore based entities with operations in Australia must know. Together, the speakers will provide counsel with strategic, practice-focused guidance on managing investigations, responding to charges and advising clients exposed to regulatory and criminal liability.
