HSW Roles & Responsibilities

HSW roles and responsibilities for supervisors.

Supervisors play a very important role in ensuring that their staff and students are aware of any safety requirements related to any activity that will be undertaken. The supervisor has line management control of their staff and students, and is responsible for addressing any inappropriate or unsafe behaviours.

The following documents capture an easy to reference snapshot of who should be involved in the delivery of specific HSW services/activities. The aim of the information is to provide a level of clarity around the range of activities required to ensure appropriate management and maintenance of the HSW System and whom has a key role in what activities. This information is indicative rather than exhaustive.

A detailed list of HSW roles can be found in HSW structure, roles and responsibilities.
