OHS in contractor management (OHS 48)

This guidance provides key points to consider before, during and after the engagement of contractors and how to manage OHS through the contract to ensure workplace safety outcomes.

OHS in contractor management is a complex issue that has a number of variables impacting on employer and contractor obligations. How a contractor is engaged, under what circumstances, who the contractor is, where the contractor is working, who has control of the site and even the type of work being conducted are only some of the issues employers need to be aware of and address through the contract process itself.
