Designers, manufacturers and suppliers
The safe design of plant, substances, buildings and structures plays a critical role in reducing manual handling risks in workplaces.
Under the OHS Act 2004, if you design plant, buildings or structures, or if you manufacture or supply plant or substances for use in a workplace, you must ensure that your product is safe, as far as reasonably practicable.
Manufacturers and suppliers must also provide information on the safe use and maintenance of their product when giving or supplying the product to someone else.
