If you are working for the client or are employed to be the H&S Officer and by your own admission you mention the presence of contractors then I would be conducting an assessment of all of the contractors, one for 5 or more employees and a separate one for less than 5.

Depending on the amount of contractors this will keep you busy for a while, especially chasing them up for information.

There are many other areas you should have an interest in; I will leave others to continue.

Good luck
