1 INTRODUCTION
The Chifley Tower located on one of the highest points in the city, is one of the most desirable sites
in the Sydney Central Business District. Bounded by three prominent Sydney streets, Hunter,
Phillip and Bent, the development dominates an area, which has become the focus for Sydneys
financial, governmental and legal communities as well as having immediate proximity to the Royal
Botanic Gardens and the Domain.
The site is well located for access from arterial routes, particularly to the east and north via the
Cahill Expressway, Sydney Harbour Tunnel and Eastern Distributor.
Buses and trains are available within a short walking distance to Wynyard Station and Martin Place
together with ferries, buses and trains at Circular Quay.
The guide provides a detailed description of architectural, structural and service aspects of the
Chifley Tower.

1.1 OBJECTIVES
The objectives of the Tenancy Fit out Manual are to:
Help protect the image and quality of Chifley Tower, for the benefit of both the
Owners and tenants;
Set guidelines to ensure a safe, comfortable, attractive and environmentally
sensitive working environment for tenants, employees, and their clients;
Provide assistance for tenants to ensure that fit outs complement the base building
to ensure the effectiveness of the base building services;
Ensure the long-term asset value of Chifley Tower is not diminished.
Ensure that the base building environmental aspirations and design is protected
through the fitout process, and to encourage tenants to support NABERS and
Green Star objectives.

1.2 OUR COMMITMENT TO INCIDENT AND INJURY FREE

The Owner and Jones Lang LaSalle believe in the fundamental principle that every person
associated with our business or properties should be able to go about their daily lives without
being injured.

The Incident and Injury Free ethos is based on the principle of care and concern for other people.
It is focussed on Occupational Health & Safety policies, procedures and statistics, and on
relationships with our colleagues, concern for their welfare and ensuring all activities are
completed in a manner that is safe for all.

We are committed to the provision of safe environments which are Incident & Injury Free for all
people; our staff, contractors and service providers, visitors, tenants and their guests.

- 10 -
The Incident & Injury Free philosophy extends beyond property and work boundaries. It is a
message which we encourage everyone to adopt for all activities they and their families and
friends undertake whether these activities relate to work, travel, leisure or at home

2 FIT OUT ADMINISTRATION

2.1 DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL PROCESS


The basic stages for fit out, refurbishment, remodelling and general changes to tenanted areas are:

2.1.1 Building Management Consultation


Building Management must be informed of your proposal and be provided with suitable
documentation, drawings, material sample boards, etc. As a general rule, any works that will
require changes to the Essential Services of the property (relocation of sprinkler heads, smoke
detectors, exit signs as well as any changes to paths of egress) will require to be carried out under a
City of Sydney Development Application or Complying Development Certificate.

Note: Building Management are the only persons authorised to sign statutory authority or
private certifier documents on behalf of the Owners.

2.2 DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION (OR EQUIVALENT)


Some fit out and refurbishment works may require to be carried out under a Development
Application, the criteria for which should be discussed with the nominated BCA Consultant or
Regulatory Authority.

2.3 CONSTRUCTION CERTIFICATE (OR EQUIVALENT)


Before works commence, a Construction Certificate must be provided. This document certifies that
all of the proposed changes to the tenancy and services are in accordance to the relative Building
Code of Australia (BCA) and Australian Standards (AS). An Independent Accredited Certifier or
regulatory authority will be required to prepare this certificate.

2.4 COMPLYING DEVELOPMENT CERTIFICATE (OR EQUIVALENT)


Some fit out and refurbishment works may be able to be carried out under a Complying
Development Certificate, the criteria for which should be discussed with the nominated BCA
Consultant or regulatory authority.

2.5 CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPATION (OR EQUIVALENT)


At the conclusion of works, an Independent Accredited Certifier or the local regulatory authority
will certify that the fit out, inclusive of all services and equipment, conform to BCA, AS or
prescribed codes. This certification, together with statements of compliance from each services
contractor, will enable the consultant to then issue a Certificate of Occupancy.
Where the base building maintenance contractor is not used for the changes to the fire and
emergency services systems the Project Manager will ensure that the base building contractor
issues a certificate of compliance or letter of comfort that states that the tenancy services are able
to perform to the base building design or applicable operating standards.

7 BUILDING SERVICES

Chifley Tower offers a suite of sophisticated services to meet the demands of today's tenant. It is
important to understand that the installation of partitioning will, as a minimum, almost certainly
cause alternations to the air conditioning, fire sprinkler system, and lighting layout. Careful
attention to the modification of tenancies during fit out shall ensure that the level and quality of
services is not compromised. Specific reference is made to air conditioning where tenants
complaints are invariably due to poor tenancy design and/or implementation.
Prior to proceeding with the tenancy fit out works, the proposed services alterations must be
reviewed and approved by the Base Building consultants (listed under):

7.2 PRIMARY AIR CONDITIONING AND CONTROLS

7.2.1 Base Building Air Conditioning


Air conditioning modifications must allow for comfort conditions throughout all areas affected by
the modifications. Modifications including air balancing, BMCS and controls changes are the
responsibility of the Tenant, and should comply with all relevant standards. The Project Manager
shall obtain from the tenant a detailed plan showing location of all staff, equipment and lighting to
determine the heat load, and the usages of all areas. These shall be provided to the air
conditioning contractor for tenancy design. Proposed modifications shall be submitted to the
Building Manager for approval.
The following details shall be incorporated into the fitout details and commissioning program:
return air flow from isolated office to be via return air grills located in ceiling

replace filter on VAV boxes

Recommission VAV boxes with the following information provided:

- primary air flow Pitot measurement

- primary air flow measurement

- secondary air flow measurement

- interface VAV box control operation with BMCS controls

- check operation of VAV box electrical duct heater

- confirm VAV box pick up factors and area factors

- 38 -
Areas, which are highly partitioned, or have floor to slab partitioning, must have sufficient return
air grilles to allow return air to traverse the above ceiling space when partitioned doors are shut.
Tenancies on multi-tenanted floors usually require return air grilles replaced in the core corridor to
allow return air from the tenancy to drop below the false ceiling level prior to returning to the
return air riser.
Under no circumstances will air conditioning outlets/return air inlets, under floor access to service
ducts, and access to VAV units be obstructed. Equipment or controls and control panels shall not
be affixed to the ductwork. Should any works necessitate relocation of any of these items, such
relocation will be carried out at the cost of the Tenant.
Prior to commissioning of construction work, air filters in the air conditioning unit located on the
floor and all VAV units located in the ceiling must be removed and replaced with new filters. The
interior of the air conditioning unit and VAV units must be checked and cleaned as necessary. Air
filters can be supplied by the Building Manager at the tenants cost. Filters procured from other
services must comply with the standard of existing filter media provided by Building Management.
Any alterations to base building air conditioning systems must include base building controls to
help you maintain conditions within the tenancy.
Where set plaster ceilings are to be installed, suitable access panels are to be provided to allow
repairs and maintenance to be carried out within the ceiling space.
During fitout work, toilet exhaust and fresh air supply may be operational. Air conditioning units
will not be operational and under no circumstances are they to be turned on/off manually. In
cases where the Tenant requires air conditioning to be operational, a request is to be made to the
Building Manager 48 hours in advance for operation to be co-ordinated via the BMCS.
After hours air conditioning changes to base building and links to the BMCS must be specifically
submitted to the Building Manager for approval.
For the purposes of security and safety, all plant room, roof access doors and fire stair doors are
always to be left in the locked position. Should it be necessary to use these doors, DO NOT PROP
OR LEAVE OPEN. Doors must be left closed at all times.

7.2.2 Air Balance Procedure


The following procedure applies to the set up and air balancing of both perimeter and centre zone
fan terminal (FTU) variable air volume boxes.
Set main AHU VSD to 50Hz and measure and record static pressure across the
fan.
Ensure that main AHU supply air fan, fan static, is 150 Pa. Record pressure
reading and time of reading. (Note that the duct pressure MUST be approximately
150 Pa for the balance to be valid.)
Set VAV box damper positions to provide the diversified air quantity. To set the
east zone damper positions, reduce the total west zone primary air quantity
(proportionally across all west zone VAV boxes) by the amount required to
achieve the east zone VAV box design air quantities. To set the west zone damper
positions reduce the total east zone primary air quantity (proportionally across all
east zone VAV boxes) by the amount required to achieve the west zone primary
air quantities.

- 39 -
Ensure all spigot dampers are open, the air boots are sitting correctly on the light
air slots, and air boot directional blades are set correctly.
Open primary air damper and set FTU primary air damper position to the
minimum position. (Via BMCS) Measure and set FTU fan to correct air quantity
by reading air quantities at the air boots. Adjust FTU air quantity by way of speed
adjustment potentiometer.
Measure and calibrate the velocity sensor at maximum primary air flow, read the
air flow by pitot traverse in primary air duct upstream of the VAV box. Set
maximum design air flow via BMCS. Measure and record static pressure of the
primary air on the inlet side of the damper. Recheck and record total air flow
from S/A boots.
Measure and calibrate the velocity sensor at minimum primary air flow, read the
air flow by pitot traverse in primary air duct. Set minimum design air flow via
BMCS. Measure and record static pressure of the primary air on the inlet side of
the damper. Recheck and record total air flow from S/A boots.
Carry out proportional air balance on all air boots and supply air diffusers.

7.2.3 Air Conditioning Controls


All requests for connection to the Building Management Control System (BMCS) are to be directed to
the Building Manager. Connections to the BMCS associated with changes to or new provisions for
any mechanical services equipment shall be subject to the approval of Building Management. Any
changes which are required to be made to the base building Air Conditioning Controls shall be carried
out by Building Managements nominated subcontractor (See Appendix B).
Ensure that a cost provision is made to update the graphical representation of the fitout area on the
BMCS.

The Project Manager shall obtain from the tenant a detailed plan showing the location of all staff,
equipment and lighting to determine the heat load and the usage of all areas. These plans shall be
provided to the air conditioning consultant for tenancy design. The VAV boxes and air diffusion
equipment layout must be designed and installed to allow correct VAV modulation and thus avoid
hot spots, under-sized zones, poor temperature sensing etc.
Areas which are highly partitioned or have floor to slab partitioning, must have sufficient return air
grilles to allow return air to traverse the above ceiling space when partitioned doors are shut.
Tenancies on multi-tenanted floors may require either acoustic security transfer ducts across the
tenancy dividing partition or return air grilles in the tenancy wall to the core corridor and corridor
ceiling grilles to allow the return air from the tenancy to leave the tenancy and return to the false
ceiling level to return to the return air riser.
Ductwork modifications will be minimised to maintain straight duct runs and resultant pressure
loss through system. Use of flexible duct shall be kept to a minimum with bends kept gentle (bend
radius > 1.5 diameters)
Air and water balancing of fit out works shall be performed only by approved balancing
contractors. The final balancing detail must be reviewed by the base building services consultant.

- 40 -
7.2.4 Base Building Toilet Exhaust

are occupied.
It is also recommended that provisions be made in the tenancy fit out to integrate manual control of
the lights with automatic controls via the Tower Building Monitoring and Control Systems. In this
way, time scheduling of the floor lighting can be implemented with provisions for lighting activation
in correlation with floor air conditioning.
The lights contain two slots either side of the diffuser for supply and return air. Should other lighting
such as down lighting be installed, the Project Manager shall ensure sufficient supply and return air
grilles are installed for the proper performance of the air conditioning.
Under no circumstances shall light fittings be obstructed. Should a tenant works require the
relocation of these items, such relocation will be carried out at the cost to the tenant.
All light fittings must have a 1500mm long flexible lead and plug.

7.3.14 Power Outlets


Fitting and accessories must be of approved manufacture and rating. It must be selected to meet
the requirements of the location and functions. All socket outlets must be earth pin located at 6
oclock position and be polarised as in the wiring rules. GPOs unless otherwise specified, must
have a 10 amp rating capacity.
Where an area does not come under the definition of "common areas", as defined in the Lease, the
power for the area is to be connected to the Tenant's metered supply

- 51 -
7.3.15 Distribution Boards
Each tenancy board has provision for standby and non-essential power and tenancy layouts/details
must indicate appropriate allowances (i.e. kVa non-essential and kVa standby).
It is recommended that tenants examine their power requirements, especially in regard to PABX and
computer supplies. Should a power loss occur to the building there is approximately a 15 second time
delay before the emergency diesel generators connect to the standby supply. The building also has
surge arrestors installed; however, on return to authority (or normal) supply a surge is possible due to
the rapid transition. Inclusion of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) within the tenancy design
may overcome any risk of loss of important data or damage to equipment.
Any connection of Tenant's equipment to the emergency diesel generators for standby and emergency
power is to be approved by the Building Manager. This is to maintain control of diesel generator
capacity usage. (The kVa load to be applied to the Diesel Generators shall be calculated.)
Any equipment external to the tenancy including dedicated risers and associated equipment for these
is to be maintained and repaired by the Tenant.
The Distribution Board in the electrical riser on each floor is designed to cater for up to six tenants per
floor, and has 96 poles. All electrical circuits and GPOs must be numbered, i.e. circuit number and
distribution board number, and the circuit schedule of the distribution board must accurately reflect
the installation as required by AS3000. The load across phases must be balanced.
All electrical circuits and GPOs must be numbered, (i.e. Circuit number and distribution board
number) and the distribution board permanently labelled as appropriate. The load across phases
must be balanced.

7.3.16 Wiring
Unless otherwise specified, all cables must not be inferior to 75oC PVC insulated. PVC sheathed,
0.6/1kV grade, stranded copper conductors. PVC insulated cables must not be used in areas where
temperature are likely to exceed 60oC.
All wiring run in ceiling spaces, including the central service corridor, must be clipped to the slab and
bundled by means of cable ties. No wiring whatsoever shall be allowed to lie on the ceiling grid or
tiles, clipped to the sprinkler pipe work, and run in the data cable trays. All works to comply with
Austel regulations.

7.3.17 Emergency and Exit Lighting


Emergency and exit lighting is installed on an open plan basis to comply with Authority requirements.
As a result of the tenancy fitout, further emergency and exit lighting may be required, and any such
additional lighting must comply with Authority requirements, be of the self-contained type and self-
monitoring type. The nominated contractor for this work is given in Appendix B.
We would suggest that consideration be given to installing a test circuit, during the construction phase,
to facilitate the regular routine testing required of these devices.

- 52 -
7.3.18 House Power and Lighting
It is Chifley Tower policy that all common area lighting and power be changed over to the tenants
distribution board as part of the tenancy fit out works if the tenant occupies the whole of the floor.

7.3.19 Building risers (Telephone & Tenant)


There is one communications riser located in the south and one communications room located in
the north riser per floor. There are also two IDF per floor, one in the north riser and on in the south
riser.
The south telephone riser is located opposite the goods lift. The MATV system is located in the
north communications room. Chifley Tower Management reserves these risers for the provision of
building wide services.

7.3.20 Carrier Services


Block cabling is fed from the MDF room to each floor via the communications riser and installed to
comply with the requirements of Telecom. Capacity for 200 telephones is provided to each floor
with fifty percent spare space provided in cable trays for future Tenant telephone expansion.

Optus - have installed a Fibre Optic cable to the Chifley Tower MDF. Services available include
Business Net Premier for local, national and international telephone calls plus mobiles. Other
Optus services available include dedicated voice, data and video services to intra-city, inter-city
and international destinations.

7.3.21 Cable trays


It is recommended that no cables or equipment be mounted on or supported by the ceiling grid,
tiles or hangers.
Cabling is reticulated via cable trays under the access floor-to-floor boxes with 15 boxes provided
to each floor.

7.3.22 Inter floor Cabling


Where communications cables are required to run between different floors (contiguous or not) the
communications riser is to be used at all times.
In the event that it is proposed to create a core hole for the purposes of running communications
cables between floors, approval must be obtained from the Chifley Tower Management as per
section E.22, Penetrations.
The use of penetrations for individual cables such as to an island desk is to be avoided, as access
to the cable and penetration is always dependent on access to the floor below. Even for tenants
with contiguous floors, such access is not always available.
The telephone riser is not to be used for any tenant inter-floor cabling.

- 53 -
7.3.23 Segregation
All cables within the tenancy, power as well as communications (voice and date) must at all time
comply with relevant standards. In particular Austel technical standards TS008 and TS009 and
Australian Standards AS3080, Integrated communications cabling systems for commercial
premises, and AS3084, Telecommunications installations - Telecommunications pathways and
spaces for commercial buildings.

7.3.24 Cabling Installation Standards


The standard of installation of communications cabling has a direct bearing on the performance of
the cable system. For this reason it is in the tenants best interest to ensure that the cable system
installed in their tenancy is of the highest standards. Compliance with the standards listed in the
segregation section of this document, as well as conformance with best installation practices for
the cabling system selected by the tenant will ensure that both the tenants and building owners
investment is protected.

10.2 NABERS INFORMATION AND RATING TOOLS


www.nabers.com.au
Chifley Tower's current energy efficiency rating is: 0-star NABERS Energy rating.

Chifley Tower intends to commence a significant upgrade programme to enhance energy efficiency and
sustainability features throughout the building.
Industry leading design consultants have been retained to develop a program of improvements to the
building services as recommended in the September 2009 Chifley Tower Ecologically Sustainable
Development Upgrade Report, which may include but are not necessarily limited to:
centralising the air-conditioning plant and the introduction of additional zones and controls to
enhance flexibility and efficiency;

new energy efficient lighting with sensor controls to common areas and tenant floors on a
progressive basis;

a gas-fired co-generation plant to provide low emission, on-site energy with waste heat being
used to provide heating and cooling through an absorption chiller;

extensive upgrade of the lift controls and motors to improve energy efficiency and enhance lift
performance for tenants;

introduction of rainwater harvesting from rooftop areas to feed the air-conditioning cooling
towers and irrigate landscaped areas;

installation of water saving fittings in washrooms and the recycling of sprinkler testing water; and

renewed shower and change room facilities and increased secure bicycle storage and locker
facilities. The provision of these features has been shown to contribute positively to the health
and well being of building occupants, enhancing employee satisfaction levels for tenant
organisations.

Chifley Tower has adopted a plan for long term sustainability with initiatives to reduce energy and water
consumption, reduce the CO2 emissions from building operation and enhance the overall tenant
experience.
These initiatives are implemented with an aim to significantly uplift the NABERS Energy rating of Chifley
Tower.

10.5 SAFE WORK METHOD STATEMENT
Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) is the process of identifying potential hazards,
assessing their risk and recording how to eliminate, or minimize, the risk to worker
safety (controls). Where potential hazards are identified as Class 1 or Class 2 risks Safe
Work Method Statements will be completed using the step by step guide in this
document.

For each of the work activities and associated job steps identified in the Safe Work
Method Statement provided .. will identify potential hazards.
Insert company name
To assist these process resources such as the following will be used:
WorkCover (Vic & NSW) and other state based Work Care Offices and trade based
Codes of Practice and other publications, e.g. safety alerts;
Hazard Profiles for specific trade groups;
Workplace experience; and
Consultation (e.g. Tool Box Talks) with workers experienced in the task to be
undertaken.

Assess Risks:
For each potential workplace hazard identified a Risk Class will be determined by
referring to the categories below. The attached Risk Management chart will be used to
determine the requirement for management of the risks identified.

Class 1: (Major Risk): Does the hazard have the potential to kill, or permanently
disable you?

Class 2: (Medium Risk): Does the hazard have the potential to cause a serious injury,
or illness, which will temporarily disable you?

Class 3: (Low Risk): Does the hazard have the potential to cause a minor injury which
would not disable you?

Selection and Use:


Where identified, all class 1 and 2 risks will be recorded on a detailed Safe Work
Method Statement (SWMS) record. Class 3 risks will be minimised as far as possible
but will not be recorded on a SWMS.
A Risk Class will be used to determine the level of Controls required to eliminate, or
minimize a potential hazard.
The higher the Risk Class the more extensive the controls to be provided.

and recording how to eliminate, or minimize, the risk to worker safety (controls). Where potential
hazards are identified as Class 1 or Class 2 risks Safe Work Method Statements will be completed using
the step by step guide on the next page.

Contractors may submit a generic (not specific to any site) Safe Work Method Statement at tender.
Broadly defined job steps will be used and general hazards identified. The SWMS will demonstrate
.. understanding of the risks
Insert company name
(Particularly Class 1 & 2 risks) involved in the work and typical controls used. This SWMS will be
provided for the purpose of tender evaluation.

Prior to commencement of work on site the generic Safe Work Method Statement submitted at tender
will be reviewed. Where job steps or site conditions will change from those planned the SWMS will be
updated to reflect the way the job will actually be done on the specific site and how safety will be
controlled a site specific SWMS.

The SWMS form provides a record to demonstrate compliance to Occupational Health and Safety
Legislation. The person responsible for implementing a particular action to eliminate, or control, the risk
of the potential hazard on site is nominated on the SWMS. This will ensure responsibility for risk control
is allocated and can be followed up.
Evaluation of the Safe Work Method Statement:
Safe Work Method Statements will be evaluated on how well Class 1 and Class 2 hazards have been
identified for the work activity to be undertaken and whether the suggested controls, wherever possible,
eliminate the potential hazard or minimise the risk of injury.
Controls should be as high as practical in the Best to Worst guide shown below.

1. Remove the hazard completely


Best
e.g. remove risk of electrocution by using compressed air driven tools.
Control 2. Separate people from the hazard
e.g. guards on power tools,
e.g. use effective barriers and edge protection,
e.g. enclose noisy machinery.
3. Use an engineered control
e.g. use Earth leakage device (safety switch) on electrical power
source.
e.g. use a machine to lift heavy objects.
e.g. use scaffolding rather than ladders to reduce risk of falls.
4. Change work practices
e.g. training in lifting techniques.
e.g. tagging procedures.
5. Provide personal protection (PPE)
e.g. hearing protection, eye protection etc.
NOTE: PPE should be the last barrier to protect people when all else fails.

10.6 PRINCIPAL CONTRACTOR INFORMATION PACK

The aim of this information pack is to provide persons or organisations nominated as principal
contractors pursuant to the NSW Occupational Health and Safety Regulation 2001 (The Regulation),
with a broad overview of their responsibilities and obligations. This pack is not a substitute for the
Regulation of for contractors obtaining their own legal advice. It is merely provided as a starting point
for you to develop your own approach to fulfilling the principal contractor obligations.

Copies of the Regulation, relevant Codes of Practice and general safety information are available from
WorkCover NSW. You can download those documents in .PDF format from the WorkCover website,
which is located at www.workcover.nsw.gov.au.

If you have any queries in relation to the information provided here or regarding the legislation
generally, we urge you to seek advice from suitably qualified persons or to contact your local
WorkCover NSW office.

Note that all extracts from the legislation shown in this information pack are in italics. All defined terms
are shown in red and a dictionary of terms is provided at page 6.

Appointment of Principal Contractor


The Regulation requires the owner of a property to appoint a principal contractor
when:
construction work is undertaken and the cost of the work exceeds $250,000;
high risk construction work is undertaken and the cost of the work does not exceed
$250,000; and
demolition work or asbestos removal work for which a licence is required under
chapter 10 to carry on the business of that work is undertaken (regardless of the cost of
the work).

Obligations of a Principal Contractor


As the principal contractor appointed by the owner of a workplace, the Regulation requires you to do
the following:

1. Training
You must not allow anyone to work on site without completing OH&S induction
training in accordance with the Code of Practice OHS Induction Training for
Construction Work. You must ensure that regardless of the work conducted, the
training and activities are appropriate to ensure the safety of all persons at that site at all
times.

2. Risk Assessment and Risk Control

Regulation 229(2)(b) states that a sub-contractor must not commence work until he or
she

- 86 -
.has undertaken an assessment of the risks associated with the work to be carried out
and provided to the principal contractor a written safe work method statement that
includes a copy of the assessment of risks.

When assessing and controlling risks at a construction site there are general principles that apply, which
include the requirements that a sub-contractor carry out the following:

Establish the context of the work and risks to be assessed;


Identify all the risks involved in the work;
Assess those risks using accepted industry assessment tools;
Assess any controls currently in place;
Develop controls using the hierarchy of control principles (see below);
Develop work methods that will ensure the safety of all concerned with the work; and
Review the whole process on a regular basis throughout the work and make any
changes required.

Regulation 5 of the Regulation sets out the meaning of "control" of risks as follows:

(1) For the purposes of this Regulation, an obligation to control a risk to health or safety (in any case
in which the elimination of the risk is not reasonably practicable) is an obligation to take the
following measures (in the order specified) to minimise the risk to the lowest level reasonably
practicable:

(a) Firstly, substituting the hazard giving rise to the risk with a hazard that gives rise to a
lesser risk,

(b) Secondly, isolating the hazard from the person put at risk,

(c) Thirdly, minimising the risk by engineering means,

(d) Fourthly, minimising the risk by administrative means (for example, by adopting safe
working practices or providing appropriate training, instruction or information),

(e) Fifthly, using personal protective equipment.

(2) A combination of the above measures is required to be taken to minimise the risk to the lowest
level reasonably practicable if no single measure is sufficient for that purpose.

For help on understanding risk assessment and control, contact WorkCover NSW, who have many
downloadable documents on their web-site. Refer also to the Australian Standard 4360 on risk
management.

Safe Work Method Statement


As the principal contractor you must ensure you obtain safe work method statements for all the work to
be carried out on the construction site in writing and prior to starting work. These should be kept with
your site specific OH&S records for a period of not less than 3 years.

- 87 -
Regulation 227(3) requires you to ensure that your sub-contractor comply with the safe work method
statement that they have provided and that they also comply with the requirements of the Occupational
Health and Safety Act 2000 and the Regulation. In order to do this, the legislation requires you to
monitor the activities of the sub-contractor to the extent necessary.

If a risk to the health or safety of a person arises because of non-compliance with either the safe work
method statement or the legislation, the principal contractor must direct the sub-contractor to stop work
immediately and not to resume work until the safe work method statement or the requirements of the
legislation, or both, are complied with.

Record Keeping
You must keep OH&S records for 3 years, including:
copies of training records and a brief description of the training conducted;

copies of safe work method statements;

copies of risk assessments; and

copies of hazard assessments.

Where the cost of work exceeds $250,000 or is asbestos or demolition work for which a licence is
required, the principal contractor also has an obligation to ensure that a copy of the occupational health
and safety management plan (see below for details) is available for inspection during the course of the
construction work by any person working onsite or about to commence work and any employee OH&S
representative.

The principal contractor must ensure that a copy of any parts of the occupational health and safety
management plan that are relevant to the sub-contractor are provided to that sub-contractor before he or
she commences work. Any changes to the plan must be immediately notified.

In circumstances where the cost of the construction work to be undertaken exceeds $250,000 and you
are a principal contractor, the Regulation imposes the following additional obligation:

- 88 -
OH&S Management Plan
You must ensure that a site specific OH&S management plan is prepared for each construction site prior
to commencing work. You must keep it up to date throughout the project. Regulation 226(3) states the
principal contractor must ensure that the occupational health and safety management plan includes:

(a) a statement of responsibilities listing the names, positions and responsibilities of all
persons who will have specific responsibilities on the site for occupational health and safety,
and

(b) details of the arrangements for ensuring compliance with the requirements for
occupational health and safety induction training that are set out in Part 8.2, and

(c) details of the arrangements for managing occupational health and safety incidents,
including the identity of and contact details for the person or persons who will be available to
prevent, prepare for, respond to and recover from occupational health and safety incidents, and

(d) Any site safety rules and details of the arrangements for ensuring that all persons at the
place of work (whether employees or visitors) are informed of the rules, and

(e) Safe work method statements for all work activities assessed as having safety risks.

Of course, the responsibilities imposed on you, as a principal contractor together with any sub-
contractors that you appoint are in addition to any other responsibilities that you or a sub-contractor
may have as an employer or self-employed person or other person having responsibilities under other
provisions of Chapter 8 of the Regulation.
This information pack is a summary only, to be used as a general guide to outlining the key
requirements of the Regulation relating to the appointment of a principal contractor. It is not a substitute
for a reading of the Regulation or for obtaining legal advice. The contents of this information pack are
current as at July 2002 and are subject to change as legislation is amended and/or repealed. Jones Lang
LaSalle does not accept liability for any loss or damage caused as a result of reliance upon it.
