Moving plant on construction sites code of practice review

Have your say to help improve work health and safety

SafeWork NSW is reviewing the Code of Practice for Moving Plant on Construction Sites to make sure it is still relevant and supports current and emerging work practices and technologies. We are asking for your help to do it.

The Code of Practice for Moving Plant on Construction Sites should be easy to understand.

It also gives information and guidance to ensure that risks to health and safety when moving plant such as machinery on or near a construction site are identified, assessed, eliminated or controlled according to current work health and safety laws.

Tell us what you think

We want to hear from workers, employee representatives, contractors, subcontractors, industry associations and anyone interested in construction work involving moving plant.

Your feedback and suggestions will help ensure the code of practice reflects current work health and safety laws, factors in changes in technology and protects workers and the community.

Consultation is open until 5pm (NSW time) on 19 June 2023.

Tell us what you think

We are reviewing all submitted feedback and comments, alongside any other consultation that has taken place as part of this review.
