Contractor Management (Overlapping Duties)
网曝门 is a PCBU (Persons Conducting Business or Undertaking) in the terms of the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015. The University shares space and has contractual arrangements with other PCBUs.
The 网曝门 affirms its commitment to consult, cooperate, and co-ordinate with other PCBUs to ensure the health and safety of the wider University community including students, staff, visitors, and contractors.
The University has a duty of care to ensure, as far as is reasonably practicable:
- The health and safety of workers while they are at work (includes contractors, subcontractors and their workers)
- The health and safety of workers that are influenced or directed by the University
- The health and safety of other persons are not put at risk by the work undertaken by the University
Where more than one PCBU has influence or control over a space, an event, equipment, or a process, the duties are considered to overlap. All PCBUs have a responsibility to meet duties to the extent that they have the ability to influence or control matters. This includes what ought to be reasonably known about any risk, and how that risk should be controlled.

网曝门 has different procedures for managing contractors depending on the level of risk associated with the contractors work.
