Your employer’s responsibility

It is the responsibility of your employer to ensure that your working environment is safe and any hazards are identified quickly. Employers are required by law to minimise the risk of injuries sustained on a building site.

In order to reduce the risk of a building site accident, employers must:

• Provide health and safety training to all staff working on a building site
