How to Manage WHS and Contractors Working in Your Premises
WHS Fundamentals

As companies expand, they increasingly need to outsource work to contractors, and it's vital to ensure that all those working on your premises follow Work Health and Safety guidelines. The biggest question is, how can we manage contractors' safety when they are not permanent employees? The answer is straightforward: by having an effective system in place to manage contractors' work safely, you could save lives and prevent tragedies. But, unfortunately, not all businesses have fully implemented Work Health and Safety (WHS) guidelines, and this can lead to fatal accidents in the workplace.
