This will supplement the existing online learning zone offered to members and encourage all nurses to develop a better understanding of occupational health.

The initiative is linked to the government’s health work and wellbeing strategy. Dr Bill Gunnyeon told delegates at a conference on strategic workplace health organised by IRS Events this week (21 November 2007) that the learning zone was part of a national effort to educate healthcare professionals on workplace health issues.
