On 24 May 2002, the Workplace Relations Ministers’ Council (WRMC) endorsed the release of The National OHS Strategy 2002–2012. The Strategy is a landmark development signifying the commitment of all Australian governments, as well as the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Australian Council of Trade Unions, to work cooperatively on national priorities for improving OHS and to achieve minimum national targets for reducing the incidence of workplace deaths and injuries.

The Strategy was developed by the members of the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission (NOHSC) and reflects their agreement to share responsibility for continuously improving Australia’s performance in work-related health and safety.

Vision: Delivering on the Nation's promise: safety and health at work for all people through research and prevention.

Mission: Provide national and world leadership to prevent work-related illness, injury, and death by gathering information, conducting scientific research, and translating the knowledge gained into products and services.

OSHA's new five-year Strategic Management Plan sets goals and strategies to build on a base of success and enhance OSHA's work for the future. The agency's vision is that "Every employer and employee in the nation recognizes that safety and health adds value to the American businesses, workplaces, and workers's lives."
