Commonwealth Consolidated Regulations Commonwealth Consolidated RegulationsIf a note at the foot of a provision of these Regulations states 'WHS Act', followed by a reference to a section number, the regulation provision sets out the way in which a person's duty or obligation under that section of the Act is to be performed in relation to the matters and to the extent set out in the regulation provision.
Note: A failure to comply with a duty or obligation under a section of the Act referred to in a 'WHS Act' note is an offence to which a penalty applies.
Note: In some jurisdictions, Schedule 1 of the corresponding WHS law applies that law to work health and safety issues arising from the storage and handling of dangerous goods and the operation or use of high risk plant. This is not the case under the Commonwealth Act, and these Regulations do not include the regulation 10 which appears in regulations made under those corresponding WHS laws.
