NEW 'WORK HEALTH & SAFETY' ACT COMING ** The Commonwealth and each state and territory government have agreed to harmonise their work health and safety laws (including Regulations and Codes of Practice) so that work health and safety laws are similar in each jurisdiction. All jurisdictions have agreed to a set of principles which will ensure that transitional arrangements are consistent across Australia, although some variations are inevitable as each jurisdiction will be transitioning from a different work health and safety system. The Commonwealth and each state and territory will continue to have its own regulator to administer the laws in their jurisdiction. The Act will be known as the Work Health and Safety Act 2010 and is due to be enacted in each jurisdiction on January 1, 2012. OSHA is up-to-date with all legislative developments and implications and is well placed to ensure its clients are well prepared for the new WHS paradigm that will exist from 2012 - just 12 months from now!
