Dreamworld’s immediate future remains unclear, with no call on the park’s reopening to be made this week.
Police investigations into the Thunder River Rapids ride are continuing, after it malfunctioned last Tuesday, killing four people.
The park’s chief executive, Craig Davidson, said on Monday he had yet to be notified when those investigations inside the park would be complete or when it could be reopened to the public.
“At this point there is no time-frame or decision,” Mr Davidson said.
About 200 staff returned to work at the Gold Coast theme park on Monday, carrying out administrative and maintenance duties.
That number is expected to rise during the week, with employees guaranteed to be paid throughout the closure period and encouraged only to return to work when they feel they are ready.
“We’ve commenced a cautious and staged approach to allow our staff to return to work at Dreamworld,” Mr Davidson said.
“It is for those staff who want to come back and help the park and support their colleagues.”
All rides at the park will also need to be cleared by independent experts and Workplace Health and Safety staff before they are reopened for use.
That process also began on Monday, with Mr Davidson confirming all audits would be transparent.
“This will include the appointment of arm’s length and independent, world-leading mechanical engineering and workplace safety experts,” he said.
Mr Davidson also stressed this review was separate to any police investigations into the Thunder River Rapids ride.
