Contractor safety

Flinders University is committed to meeting the standards required by the Occupational Health Safety and Welfare Act 1986 as amended.

Registering Contractors

Any contractor undertaking work on University premises must be a Flinders University Registered Contractor.  Contractor registration is the process used by the University to verify and document that the proposed contractor meets the safety and insurance requirements of Flinders University. 

To become a Registered Contractor, organisations or individuals must complete the  Contractor Safety Agreement (DOC 74KB)  and provide the University with details of:

  • Workcover Registration or equivalent where company registered;
  • Public Liability Insurance;
  • Contractor OH&S Policy;
  • Contractor Safety Management Plan;
  • Licences and Accreditations.

All Registered Contractors and workers are expected to familiarise themselves with the Flinders University OH&S Policy and the Contractor Safety Policy . 

The policy sets a framework to ensure that all contractors, sub-contractors and workers are provided with a safe working environment and that they work in ways that will maintain that safe environment.

University Staff

University Staff requiring work to be undertaken within their section should consult the Registered Contractor List below before engaging the services of a contractor. If the Contractor wishing to be engaged is not on the list, send them a copy of the Contractor Safety Agreement above.  The signed and completed agreement along with the supporting documentation should then be returned by email to Buildings and Property or by post to:           
             Flinders University
             Buildings and Property
             Registry Building, Room 131 
             PO BOX 2100
             ADELAIDE SA 5000
