Using the OHS Regulation
The Occupational Health & Safety (OHS) Regulation exists to protect workers and other persons present at workplaces from work-related risks to their health, safety, and well-being. It is important that a worker can locate and interpret regulations that deal with situations that commonly arise in the trades. Familiarity with the contents of the OHS Regulation is essential for all tradespersons. Using the online search tool is a good resource for identifying or confirming regulations that govern specific situations you may encounter on your job site.
