21.01.2022 Who is responsible for workplace health and safety? Workers often think of health and safety being the responsibility of management, however the legal obligations ensure that everyone has a responsibility for health and safety at their workplace. - Health and safety is about you... - Health and safety is about your family - Health and safety is about your mates - Health and safety is about your job - Workers compensation doesnt pay all the bills nor will they replace the self-esteem one has from being a good provider to their families. Without complete cooperation from everyone on the worksite, or at a workplace, it just will not be as safe as it should be. Stop and think! If it is unsafe for you then its unsafe for everyone! If you would like to know more about how to train your employees on their responsibilities call our head office (07) 4724 0001 to discuss in further detail.

08.01.2022 Please view the new Concrete Pumping COP which supersedes the 2005 version from the 2nd December. The key changes to the code: - Clarify that the mobile concrete pump operator is not to carry out the work of a line hand. The line hand is at the end of the concrete delivery hose and cannot monitor the concrete pump operations, including the stability of the concrete pump setup. This change means a minimum of two workers will be required for mobile concrete pumping operations.... - Provide stronger and clearer guidance on maintaining the stability of mobile concrete placing booms and managing the risk of concrete line blockages. - Clarify that workers other than line hands or concreters are not to be directly under the concrete placing boom during concrete pumping operations. The restriction of workers under the boom, other than the line hand and concreters who may need to work under the boom, reflects the serious safety risks if the boom has a catastrophic failure. - Update guidelines on working near overhead powerlines. - Provide stronger and clearer guidance on annual and major (six yearly) inspection requirements. Inspections for concrete pumps and booms should happen daily before commencement of concrete pumping work, weekly, monthly, yearly and with a major inspection every six years. If you have any questions please call us for advice 07 4724 0001
