All organisations have a duty of care to protect the health and safety of employees, visitors to their workplace and others directly affected by activities under the organisation’s control. Under Health and Safety at Work Act, employers are required to provide a safe place to work and working environment which includes developing a health and safety policy, providing training and information, undertaking risk assessments, and maintaining equipment and other systems to ensure their safety. As an employer you will need to comply with specific regulations covering workplace safety and industrial work environments.
