About this event

The 23rd Australian System Safety Conference is organised by the Australian Safety Systems Critical Association (aSCSa), a Special Interest Group of the Australian Computer Society.

Newsreels are full of coverage about impending introduction of autonomous vehicles and taxi services, aerial drone delivery services in your street, autonomous rail, cyber and energy security risks, artificial intelligence, intelligent transport networks and infrastructure and recently the announcement of an Australian Space Agency and growth in related space industries.


How well skilled is industry and responsible agencies to manage the system safety challenges that come with these technology advances? How should we rise to the challenge? Straw polls on compliance to proposed ACS Safety Professional competency criteria at last year’s conference indicate that attendees and members did not feel overly confident of their status.

Along-side publishable advances in system safety practices and notable project challenges - the aSCSa invites representatives from Industry, project agencies and academia to participate at this conference on the needs and ideas for raising skills and strengthening safety engineering through better-integrated practices.
Past conferences were attended by representatives from Medicine and health (medical devices, e-health systems etc.), Transport, Defence and Aviation, Telecommunications, Energy, Security, Resource and process industries, and Emergency services.

Note, separate registration is required for the tutorials being held on Wednesday, 23 May. Register for the tutorials here.
