I do note under the SSMA it doesn't require an OC to have workers comp insurance, but insurances required under the Workers Compensation Act. There have been several recent changes to this legislation which in effect means that if the OC is not employing sole traders,they do not need to have WC insurance… It gets a bit more complicated than this… But something to look at.
Mr Strata is absolutely right …
Now at this point, when I first wrote this post I got confused between Workers Comp (blathering on about legal advice) and Occupational Health and Safety checks which a lot of buildings think they don't need but they do …
To avoid confusion, I've excised that bit and you can go straight to the bit where Mr Strata puts me right…
