Victoria’s Occupational Health and Safety Regulations 2007 (OHS Regulations) and the Equipment (Public Safety) Regulations 2007 are due to expire on June 19, 2017.
WorkSafe has today released proposed new OHS Regulations to replace the current OHS Regulations.
WorkSafe has invited public submissions and comment on the proposed new OHS Regulations as part of the consultation and review process. Submissions are due by the close of business on Friday September 9, 2016.
Employers, designers, suppliers and others with relevant obligations under the regulations should carefully review the amendments and identify how these will affect them. While many of the changes will provide clarity or reduce the burden of regulation, some may have the potential to increase obligations either generally or in specific circumstances. The public comment process is to ensure that unforeseen or unintended adverse consequences are identified.
Norton Rose Fulbright can assist you in understanding the changes to the OHS Regulations and how they will affect your business. We can also assist in the drafting of submissions to WorkSafe on the proposed new OHS Regulations.
The proposed new OHS Regulations are available here.
Stay tuned for our summary of the key changes and how they will impact you.
Enquiries on the draft OHS Regulations or submissions should be directed to Barry Sherriff, Consultant and/or Nicki Milionis, Special Counsel below.

On December 27, 2023, the European Union’s new Anti-Coercion Instrument (Regulation 2023/2675) (the ‘ACI’) came into force. It aims to protect the European Union (the EU), and its Member States, from economic coercion by third countries. This could be a double-edged sword for businesses, however. While it provides a mechanism for shaping the EU response to injurious third-country measures, it also generates additional regulatory risk for those operating both within and outside the EU.

International financial markets have started to show significant interest in nature and biodiversity. Whilst climate change and greenhouse gas emissions have made the headlines in recent years, there has been much less focus on their equally important counterparts, nature and biodiversity. However, that has started to change.
