Quarterly reports are to be submitted using Safety Regulation System (SRS). 

Before you can access SRS, you must register to use the system. Once this is done, you will receive a department account number which you will then use to access SRS.

SRS allows users to lodge documents and data with the Department electronically. This includes approvals, compliance, notifications, health and hygiene sampling information, levy assessment and licence and certification management. Some functions also enable customers to monitor the progress of their submissions and to upgrade and manage their licence details online.
