Welcome to Macarthur Advocate

SAFEWORK NSW is urging construction businesses to properly secure worksites over the Christmas–New Year shutdown to prevent injuries, deaths, theft and vandalism. Inspectors will visit sites before and during the break to promote preparedness and ensure legal obligations are met. Sites must be fenced, locked, powered down, cleared of debris, and hazardous areas secured. Unsecured sites risk improvement or prohibition notices and fines. Managers are encouraged to use SafeWork NSW’s site security checklist.
