Contractor Safety Management
About
Effective contractor management is crucial for ensuring safety. Contractors are hired for various reasons, including providing additional labour support and offering specialised skills for technical projects. However, studies show that contractor workers are vulnerable to incidents. This is particularly so in the context of the gig economy and labour hire workers. Therefore, effective contractor management is critical for ensuring safety and legal compliance. Indeed, many prosecutions of companies relate to contractor safety incidents.This area is complex and continuously evolving. Given the increasing penalties and the risk of industrial manslaughter, organisations must carefully consider their unique risks and requirements and how these factors relate to their contractors.
Join leading work health and safety lawyer Michael Tooma as we explore the latest developments in contractor management, including key case law, legislation and safety theory, looking at all stages of the contractor management lifecycle:
1. Scoping;
2. Selection;
3. Onboarding;
4. Planning;
5. Operations; and
6. Completion.
This paid workshop is based on his text Michael Tooma on Managing Contractor Safety, CCH, 2018. We look forward to seeing you at the event!
