REMOVE CONTROL & CONSTRAINT BEHAVIOUR

“NEXT GEAR” – SIGNATURE SAFETY PROGRAM

• Disrupts traditional ways of thinking and doing Safety.

• Places individuals at the centre of creating the solution.

• Relies on and encourages a strong safety leadership capability.

• Recognises positive safety indicators using a simple framework.

SIMPLIFIED HSE SYSTEM – THE 3 NEXT GEAR PRINCIPLES

People are the solution instead of the problem.

Safety is the presence of positives instead of the absence of negatives.

Safety is an ethical responsibility instead of a bureaucratic activity.

TACTICS THAT BUILD RESILIENCE

• Empower workforce through

engagement and trust.

• Focus on high consequence risks.

• Learn from our normal work and

investigate success.

• Reduce bureaucracy and simplify

systems.

• Leadership that challenges traditional thinking.

YOUR PART TO PLAY

• Implement our HSE Management and

understand the contract requirements.

• Identify controls required to manage High

Risk work activities.

• Get involved to ensure we understand our

work and resource the required controls.

• Challenge the process and keep it simple.

Let’s step out from the crowd so we can

position ourselves at the forefront of HSE leadership and the construction industry.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU

Maximising Opportunities for Local Industry

“At present, the typical arrangements are for sub-

contracts to be based on ‘trade packages’.

Defence has considered feedback from Northern

Territory enterprises and will instead trial the use of

smaller ‘work packages’ for the upcoming

Larrakeyah Redevelopment and Naval Operations in

the North projects,” Minister Payne said.

Under this approach, buildings or work elements may

be tendered separately, rather than by individual

trade. It is expected that this initiative will provide

greater opportunity to local industry in the Northern

Territory.

Rob NortheyMat Thomson Tammil ToombsMitchell Sonter

Overview

•Key Terms

•Role of the ABCC

•Building Code 2016 –application of the Building Codes

–what it means to be ‘hooked’

–subcontractor obligations

•Reporting Requirements

Key Terms

• Building Code 2016 – the Code for the Tendering and Performance of

Building Work 2016 – commenced 2 December 2016

• Code Covered Entity – the term we use to describe a contractor

that has tendered for or expressed interest in Commonwealth funded building work from 2 December 2016.

Key Terms cont.

• Enterprise Agreement - Enterprise agreements are collective agreements

made at an enterprise level between employers and employees about terms and conditions of employment. They are registered with the Fair Work Commission and continue to operate until terminated.

• Modern Award - Modern awards cover a whole industry or occupation and provide

a safety net of minimum pay rates and employment conditions. (e.g. Building and Construction General On-Site Award 2010)

The role of the Australian Building and Construction Commission (ABCC)

• Purpose: “…to ensure that building work is carried out fairly, efficiently and productively…”

• Two key areas of responsibility

– Compliance with the Fair Work Act 2009 & the BCIIP Act

– Compliance with the Building Codes

Education• On site activities;

• Presentations

• 1800 Hotline

• Direct contact from Industry

• Website

• Industry Updates

Compliance• Right of entry

• Unprotected industrial action

• Freedom of association

• Coercion, discrimination and adverse action

• Sham contracting

• Building Code

• Wage and entitlements;

What is the Building Code 2016?

• It is the Code for the Tendering and Performance of Building Work 2016 established under the Building and Construction (Improving Productivity) Act 2016.

• It sets out the Australian Government’s expected standards for building industry participants who wish to be involved in Commonwealth-funded construction projects.

Building Code 2016

Compliance with the Building Code 2016

• Building Code 2016 applies to contractors who submit an EOI or tender for Commonwealth funded building work on or after 2 December 2016.

– This will make you a ‘code covered entity’

I’m a Code Covered entity…what now

• This means, you will be required to also comply with the Building Code on all new privately funded projects.

• Except, you are not required to ensure sub contractor compliance on privately funded projects.

Subcontractor responsibilities during tender process

On Commonwealth funded building work:

– require compliance with Code

– ensure section 23 eligibility requirements are met.

Eligibility Requirements

• The Building Code 2016 sets out two eligibility requirements to tender for Commonwealth funded building work:

– The code covered entity and its related entities must meet the requirements of section 11; and

– Must not be subject to an exclusion sanction.

Section 11 Compliance• To demonstrate compliance with section 11 of the

Code, contractors require either :– a Letter of Compliance or – an appropriate Self-Declaration.

• The evidence required of each contractor is different depending on the type of industrial arrangement(s) the contractor operates under, when the arrangement was made, and when the contractor has/is tendering for Commonwealth funded building work.

• You are not required to have an Enterprise Agreement in order to tender for Commonwealth funded building work

Letters of Compliance

• The ABCC issues Letters of Compliance for enterprise agreements made on or after 25 April 2017 that meet the requirements of the Building Code 2016 (an ABCC Determination).

• The ABCC also provides advice on whether individual clauses and proposed agreements meet the requirements of the Building Code 2016.

The ABCC has published:• Extensive guidance material containing advice on the

compliance of hundreds of clauses.

Subcontractor responsibilities on site

On Commonwealth funded building work:

– as far as reasonably practicable, ensure subcontractors take action to remedy non-compliant behaviour.

What are the requirements of the Building Code 2016?

The Building Code contains a range of requirements for code covered entities: – eligibility requirements for engaging contractors on Commonwealth funded building work– compliance with certain laws, including designated building laws, WHS laws, Competition and

Consumer Act and Migration Act;– security of payment compliance, including specific Building Code requirements;– unregistered agreements– prohibited content for enterprise agreements– sham contracting– collusive tendering practices– above-entitlement payments– labour market testing– protecting freedom of association– right of entry– reporting and notification requirements– managing drug and alcohol issues in the workplace

What if we identify a Breach of Building Code?

Reporting obligations – no later than 2 working days

Must notify ABCC of a breach or a suspected breach of the Building Code and advise the steps proposed to be taken to rectify the breach.

Rectification – notify of steps within 14 days

After initial notification, must notify the ABCC of the steps taken to rectify the breach.

Consequences of breaching the Code

If the non-compliance is with WHS laws or the Fair Work Act re: underpayment of wages or entitlements, the Minister must impose an

exclusion sanction unless satisfied not appropriate.

Minister may issue a formal warning or impose an exclusion sanction.

Refer the breach to the Minister for Employment, with a recommendation for sanction.

General responsibilities: What do we need to do?
