The Work Health and Safety Act 2011 aims to protect workers and others against harm to their health, safety and welfare. The Act recognises the role of a Person Conducting a Business or Undertaking (PCBU – generally the employer), unions, and workers in making workplaces healthier and safer. It is essential there is consultation between a PCBU and workers. Under the Act, PCBUs have an obligation to consult with workers and their representatives. This information sheet outlines workplace consultation, who sets up a committee, who should be members of the committee, how often does the committee meet, and are members of the committee civilly liable.
