Understanding Overlapping Duties and Contractor Management: Ensuring Compliance
Managing overlapping duties and contractor management is essential for complying with health and safety regulations. Overlapping duties occur when two or more businesses share health and safety responsibilities for the same workers or areas. It is crucial for all parties to clearly understand their obligations to consult, cooperate, and coordinate to ensure safety. On the other hand, contractor management involves overseeing the safety and performance of contractors working on your site, ensuring they meet your organisation’s safety standards and comply with relevant health and safety requirements.
