Guide to Best Practice for Safer Construction
July 31, 2010 | No Comments | News
Guide to Best Practice for Safer Construction was devleoped by CRC for Construction Innovation and supported by Engineers Australia. The Guide provides a framework to improve safety performance on construction projects and covers all stages of a project: planning, design, construction and post-construction. Its overarching objective is to reduce the number of accidents and deaths on construction sites and to improve the ability of the industry as a whole to deliver safer construction projects and healthier employees.The three primary stakeholder groups of the construction industry – clients, designers and constructors – have worked together to create a methodology which integrates occupational health and safety into strategic and operational decision-making at all stages of the project.
The Guide is intended to be an aspirational document that leads discussion and industry change, as well as a practical tool which can be used across the industry, by clients, designers and constructors and by large firms and small and medium-sized enterprises.
