Purpose

The QVHS Directory is an Australian Directory, designed to assist people looking for information about health, safety and environmental issues. It is designed for:

• Health professionals
• Safety professionals
• Environmental health professionals
• Legal practitioners
• Insurance professionals

The Directory is designed to expand upon and enhance searches of the Open Directory Project (ODP) within the areas of health, safety and environment (HSE).

The Directory is based on the following fine examples of free, open source, community based information projects. We share the principles and examples of these organisations, they are:

• Open Directory Project: http://www.dmoz.org
• The Open Encyclopaedia Project: http://open-site.org
• Free Software Foundation: http://www.gnu.org

Directory hierarchy (taxonomy)

The OHSE Directory organises information into logical categories, in doing so we have attempted, where practicable, to follow the system used by the Open Directory Project (www.dmoz.org). Where, the Open Directory has produced categories relevant to this Directory, we have linked to that area.
