Details

This comprehensive title provides annotated versions of the Model Work Health and Safety Act and the Model Work Health and Safety Regulations. It also compares the model version of Act and Regulations to the legislation adopted in NSW, Queensland, Tasmania, South Australia, Northern Territory, ACT and the Commonwealth in order to highlight jurisdictional variations within the harmonised framework.

The third edition provides insight into how courts and regulators are interpreting, applying and enforcing the WHS laws. It incorporates important updates on:
  • Enforcement and sentencing trends,
  • Judicial interpretations of right of entry and consultation provisions;
  • The introduction of industrial manslaughter laws,
  • Application of the model WHS laws to areas still clouded by uncertainty, such as psychological health and non-standard working arrangements.

This book provides a convenient and cost-effective solution for professionals and lawyers, allowing you to understand and apply the laws in different jurisdictions.
