Navigating the Complexities of Risk Management and Insurance in Construction
Can I get insurance for breaching health & safety law?
Whether you agree with it or not, the reality for everyone in the construction sector is that ensuring workplaces are safe is not negotiable. Unfortunately, despite the best intentions of employers, sometimes things happen. If an injury occurs and a WorkSafe NZ investigation determines that it could have been prevented, you could face a fine and/or prosecution. Under the current law workplace bullying is also considered a hazard, and failure to prevent it could be a breach of the law.
How can a contractor reduce the cost of not getting paid?
It’s been reported more than 20 building companies have collapsed in Christchurch this year. And nationwide every year hundreds of construction companies cease trading and don’t make the news. Businesses in all industries face the risk of not getting paid for what they do, so what are the tools and processes you can put in place to limit this risk?
LBP, RBW and RoW – what are you liable for?
The Building Act does not prevent building companies using (potentially) cheaper, lower-skilled labour for restricted building work (RBW); this must be signed off by an LBP to comply with the law. LBPs who contact us want to know what liability they’re taking on for signing off this work, and what insurance is available to protect them.
