WHS/OHS in the workplace

Post by katiemaree13 » Tue Feb 21, 2017 11:34 am

Hi,

I am completely stuck on the following questions and do not know what they are asking, can I please have some guidance. Is it talking about your states regulation, law or code?
In the following table, name the relevant legislations, regulations, codes and standards and how they impact on WHS/OHS in the workplace:
a) the act
b) workplace regulations
c) codes of practice
d) industry standards
e) state/territory WHS authorities
f) rights and responsibilities of employers and workers
g) duty of care
h) hazardous manual tasks
i) infection control
j) policies and procedures in early childhood education and care
Thanks,
Katie :think:
