Work safe with Worksafe updates and more

PlaceMakers ninth round of skills maintenance seminars helps builders stay across the industry’s ongoing changes

With the Health and Safety Reform Bill now passed and changes to the skills maintenance scheme starting from November, PlaceMakers is pleased to offer its builders another round of seminars to help them understand their new responsibilities.

“It’s great to see how well most builders have managed to stay up to speed, given how much change our industry has experienced over the last few years,” says presenter John Tait.

“By hosting these seminars, we aim to make navigating these changes easier for PlaceMakers customers.

“In this round of seminars, we will cover off key concepts in the new Worksafe Health and Safety at Work Act and quickly catch up on what’s going on with changes to LBP skills maintenance.”

The seminars will also continue to focus some time on building code clauses. This round, we will go over safety from falling, warning systems, access routes and fencing of swimming pools

“There will be plenty of photos and I expect builders to be a little surprised at what does and does not comply,” says John. “Come prepared to get involved in the discussion.”

Don’t miss out on the well-researched information presented in these seminars. Contact your local PlaceMakers to register your interest and build on the skills maintenance points you’ve already earned through reading Under Construction.
