  3. Apologies, Minutes, Actions Apologies Previous Minutes - SRG dated 24 October 2012 Action items from previous meeting

  4. Marketing Update- WorkSafe online environment Steve Gosbell

  5. A big gap between the current client experience and where we need to be • The key issue • Approx 1.2M unique visits to worksafe.vic.gov.au every year • only 53% of them report they can successfully complete their ‘task’ • But ‘satisfaction’ is at 65% - maybe our screens look pretty?! • a website will never be perfect for everyone but we must aim for >80% satisfaction • Our online audience is growing and we haven’t kept up with their expectations (including a growing expectation to ‘transact’) Page 5

  6. Only 1 in 2 people can complete their main task • Reported Satisfaction however runs at 65%

  7. Respondents employed at companies with 21-99 employees were most satisfied overall, with nearly three-quarters (72%) indicating they were either satisfied or very satisfied. One-fifth (20%) of respondents from companies with 1-4 employees were either dissatisfied or very dissatisfied with the website overall. People in small businesses are least satisfied

  8. The long tail Over 1000 pages deep; 1000’s of links Probably too much emphasis on niche content, making it more difficult for the most popular content to be found. Certainly there are structural issues. Page 8

  9. Contributing to this situation • A very inflexible platform – recently fixed • Current site launched in 2005 • Fragmented landscape with no comprehensive plan or architecture for our online activity • Owners of these properties are numerous and operate largely independently of one another

  10. What are we doing now; and then what… • New platform (Squiz). Migration completed July ‘12 • Incremental improvements to current site – redesigns and new content development with a much greater emphasis on understanding key tasks and ‘user journeys’. • Avoiding the temptation to simply replicate offline content into our online environment • Where possible, developing online transactional capability, eg Plant registration

  11. A shared vision • Background reading • Interviews across WorkSafe to understand strategic needs • Focus groups • Development of personas & key task scenarios What WorkSafe wants from its online channel What users want from WorkSafe’s online channel To establish a shared vision for WorkSafe’s online channel that meets both user needs and business goals, and articulate how the organisation can bring this vision to life.

  12. Understanding & designing around our landscape We need good online systems to help this group collaborate better to deliver a great online service We won’t just focus here

  13. USER-DRIVEN ONLINE EXPERIENCE Develop a new website that: • allows clients to find what they’re looking for, talks in a language they understand and provides information in a format they can follow (enablers) • allows organisational stakeholders to communicate as effectively and efficiently as possible • is the sole hub for WorkSafe’s online delivery Develop a System that: • allows clients to complete key tasks online (e.g register plant, make a claim, manage a claim, pay your premium, apply for a license etc, etc) • facilitates more efficient service delivery and a greater understanding of clients

  14. A NEW VISION • A new model for website content that: • makes information easy to find • tailors content to user needs • prioritises key tasks • seamlessly integrates website content and backend system(s) • This model can accommodate different content filtering approaches across the website Note this is simply an illustrative sample – not a page design

  15. A NEW VISION Delivering real-time, personalised online interactions to users Cross-divisional collaboration across WorkSafe is essential to achieving this vision It will deliver transparency to all throughout the claims process Note – illustrative of ‘system’ capability only

  16. Timeframe • Internal consideration Jan – Apr ‘13 • Commence development of new website June ’13 • Develop info architecture • Audit current content • Develop new content as required • Launch new site (without interactive ‘system’) Dec ’14 • Commence development of interactive system June ’13 • Define system development approach Jan – Nov ‘13 • Develop business case Dec ’13 – Apr ’14 • Design & development July ’14 – Apr ’17 • Launch ‘system’ within website May ‘17
