How to comply

There are many basic solutions for controlling the various hazards and risks in foundries.

But it is not enough to simply eliminate the obvious risks – by law employers are responsible for controlling all potential safety hazards in their workplace.

Where solutions are not obvious, employers should use a process to help them determine the most effective control measures for the risks they find in their workplace.

WorkSafe has a range of guidance materials to advise on the required processes and actions that duty-holders should take in order to meet their legal obligations. Compliance Codes, Health and safety solutions and Guidance notes.
