So basically, any complex that hires someone on an ongoing basis or for a one off project is a PCBU under the WHS act? If so I have just said all that mumbo jumbo in one sentence. Which is all I want. I would like something to give to the “masses” who will not read anything longer than a text message. In this complex, we had to write our by laws in two paragraphs to get anyone to read them let alone understand/comply!
And where does this leave a complex if they are not aware that someone is running a business from their home? What protection do we have? Do we ask for a stat dec? If we went around asking people if they are running a business from their homes they would deny it. We know we have had people in the past running a business from their homes in this complex. Though they are no longer living here, have no idea if someone else is doing the same
