Office & Workplace at Safe Work Australia

The office is located centrally in Canberra, right on Lake Burley Griffin. This means it is easy to access for people reliant on things such as public transport. The building has cyclist facilities, including lockers, showers and a secure bike rack for those who like to cycle into work. The building is relatively new, spacious and has plenty of facilities (including a cinema for after hours) Dress code for SWA can change depending on what team you are in, however I would label it overall as is smart casual. We also have casual Fridays.

Nishi Building in Canberra is very nice. It has views overlooking the lake, and you can see Parliament House and the Library. It has 4 kitchens, very specious work pods, sit-to-stand work stations, lovely bathrooms and shower facilities. The office is 15 minutes from the tram or about 10-12 minutes from the nearest bus line. There are a few cafes around, and Palace Electric Cinemas is downstairs for easy screening. Dress code is smart casual/professional, however, dress code can differ between teams. We have casual Fridays.

Casual dress code, very lovely office environment.

The office has plenty of windows, so there is always natural light coming in. It is very spacious and everyone is assigned a sit-to-stand desk, ergonomic chair and their own storage space. There are three kitchens, so there is plenty of space to prepare lunch. It's got a few conference/meeting rooms, but when everyone is working in the office, it can be a bit difficult to find a vacant room. As it is an open-floor office, there is not much privacy to have your own private conversations, so staff would generally have to find a vacant room or step out. The dress code is quite relaxed. Smart casual is the minimum standard and Fridays are our casual dress days.

The Agency's offices are located in the Nishi building in Canberra. This provides easy access to Lake Burley Griffin and various cafes and restaurants. I would describe the dress code as business casual.
