How has the Workplace Health and Safety Legislation affected your business: a) at your workplace b) on site?:
- It has made working conditions and environment more attractive , comfortable to work in.
- I think it is great. I am a medium employer (18 staff) and it gives me piece of mind. We used to do all manor of stupid things from ladders when I was young and unfortunately there are still those that do these things. The best thing about Worksafe is that they are out there everywhere, so it means that a lot of our competitors have changed their ways and we don't have to compete against as many guys that are cutting corners. Yes, there is now a lot more paperwork, but it is just a matter of getting set up for these things. Get the right software and processes and it will save you money in the long run. I do feel for the 1 man bands who have to do all of the paperwork though.
- Yes and yes. Whilst safety is and always should be our highest priority, these rules are crippling the country. You can't legislate to cover stupidity, but they are certainly having a good go at it. Things have gone way too far. Common sense has gone out the window in favour of fluro folly. As an example, what used to be bread and butter for a signie - a shop awning, now becomes a major project. Reams of paperwork, roads blocked off, witches hats, traffic controllers, footpath barriers, mechanical lifts, people watching other people..... it's a joke. Not to mention the cost. Further, the lines of responsibility are twisted. Buy a piece of electrical equipment and it has to be tagged and tested. Why? Hire a cherry picker and you, the operator have to ensure it works as it should. Why? Surely the onus should be on the manufacturer or supplier to provide a product that is fit for purpose? Do we get our customers to check the screws we fixed their sign with? The ironic part, and what makes it so farcical is that more accidents happen in the home than in the workplace, often using the very same equipment, yet the same constraints don't apply. And nor should they. Business is simply being screwed, because they are an easy target to attack. Sadly the whole country is going down the gurgler as our manufacturing costs increase, while countries we import from laugh at us.
- After doing an EWP course, and passing it a couple of years ago, I eventually sent the paperwork away. Unbeknownst to me there was a cutoff date for lodging it, and it was received by the state dept on the Monday following the Friday cutoff. This was in late July.For some reason, they took until NOVEMBER to write back and say they will not process it as it was received 'out of date' by the length of that weekend in July. They required I do another course, and resubmit the paperwork. (as if I was made of $). I tried to contact the course provider, to see if he would reissue another pink form, but in the meantime he's gone through a divorce and left to live in New Guinea, and his ex wife had no intention of giving me his contact details.So WHS has added a lot of cost and zero benefit to my cost of doing business, in that category, due to their pathetic pedantic paperwork processing pool. I understand the importnace of WS, but they should be ENcouraging, not DIScouraging participation. (Ian Stewart-Koster - Traditional Signs)
- I don't do any installs and cannot afford staff. Labour put a stop to that. I believe main roads are not allowed to climb a ladder to install a road sign or to reach to top shelf in the office
- It's made us much more aware of our obligations and forced us to be smarter about the whole subject. We've changed our ways for the better and are now much more safety conscious and proactive with our planning for job safe work practices. (Paul Townsend, The Digimen)
- It makes some jobs harder and more expensive. No ladders on site now, in favour of EWP with the associated expenses of Licensing, PP gear etc. Some jobs we work on simply makes it too expensive or inappropriate to use EWP in confined areas. Even though the legislation makes allowances for job that are unworkable using the legislated requirements to use other methods, most WPH&S staff don't give an inch to letting you do what is safe yet affordable, in line with the job at hand. I was told to be onsite for an induction before I could proceed, having to be there 3 hours before the induction start. I had to drill 4 holes and screw a sign to a wall. I couldn't start until I'd done the induction... they required all contractors to be available for three hours.... the job was worth $75.00. I left and the client was unable to find anyone to do the job. I finished up going in after hours to avoid the hassle. The job was done before I was challenged by security and given a warning. Common sense has been replaced with stupidity in so many cases.
- No One wants their empoloyees to suffer injuries whether it be at the workshop or on site. What I do not like is the fact that all responsibility is trying to be placed on the employer (duty of care) and no responsibility lies with the employee. The extreme amount of record keeping and administrative costs is beginning to become insane and will cost small business dearly. I thought we were all responsible for our own actions...Lets face it though for years we have been pushing the limits of safety versus costs. In the long run it will enevitably just make the end product more expensive - accidents will still happen because we can not hold employees hands for everything they do. We have just run into OHS beaurocracy gone mad on a construction site where we were required to obtain measurements and wanted to use a 6' step ladder to measure a sign. We were promptly advised that NO step ladders were allowed on site, all people entering had to go through a 1 hour site induction before entering the site and you were only allowed to use a scissor lift and have an EWP ticket to use it although we only wanted to go no more than 4' off the ground to measure the sign correctly.
- Onsite, we have worked out that it will cost consumers an extra $150 per set up of a basic platform (trestles, planks, guard rails) instead of a ladder, given that legislation requires that a platform be used where possible over a ladder for anything above 2LM high.

WALKING THE DOG A WOMAN was flying from Melbourne to Brisbane ..Unexpectedly, the plane was diverted to Sydney along the way. The flight attendant explained that there would be a delay, and if the passengers wanted to get off the aircraft the plane would re-board in 50 minutes. Everybody got off the plane except one lady who was blind. The man had noticed her as he walked by and could tell the lady was blind because her Seeing Eye Dog lay quietly under- neath the seats in front of her throughout the entire flight. He could also tell she had flown this very flight before because the pilot approached her, and calling her by name, said, 'Kathy, we are in Sydney for almost an hour. Would you like to get off and stretch your legs?'. The blind lady replied, 'No thanks, but maybe Max would Like to stretch his legs.' Picture this: All the people in the gate area came to a complete standstill when they looked up and saw the pilot walk off the plane with a Seeing Eye dog! The pilot was even wearing sunglasses. People scattered. They not only tried to change planes, but they were trying to change airlines! True story... Have a great day and remember... THINGS AREN'T ALWAYS AS THEY APPEAR.
