Workplace Health & Safety
Safety obligations are imposed not only on organisations, but also on individual directors and senior managers personally. We advise on how to handle a regulator’s initial inquiry to contesting a criminal prosecution. This includes physical and psychosocial risks, safety record keeping, and the obligations owed to workers including coronial inquiries, and workplace manslaughter charges.
