Guide to best practice for safer construction: Implementation kit (original) (raw)

Abstract

The Guide to Best Practice for Safer Construction has been developed following a detailed review of practical Australian and international best practice initiatives. 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.
