My company is about to open a branch in Brisbane and I have been asked to advise on the H&S requirements on opening an office there. I've printed off the Workplace act (1995) and the Workplace regs (1997) but can anyone point me in the direction of something giving practical advice on what to do. Specifically:-

1. Do you have to display a H&S Law Poster like we do here ?
2. Does the company have to have a source of competent H&S Advice in Australia ?
3. Do we have to display an Insurance Certificate ?
4. PAT testing ?

etc etc, any help would be appreciated.

Hi Dave,
You can consult with Safework Queensland about such requirements. I am located in Adelaide, requirements from state to state are different.
However, in Australia requirement of having an OHS officer depends on number of employees.
I guess, there isn't any regulation which require an OHS advice from outside.
