It is your ‘general duty of care’ as an employer under AS/NZS 3760:2010, 3012:2010 and MSI Regulations to ensure your employees & visitors to your workplace are safe under the Occupational Health & Safety Act 1984.

This includes maintaining safety for the use of electrical equipment, in an attempt to prevent hazards such as electric shock and damage to property
and people. A well-planned program of preventative maintenance with regular electrical safety checks is the ideal way to avoid unnecessary and unfortunate accidents as well as any legal ramifications that may follow.
