The Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA) is New Zealand’s key work health and safety law. All work and workplaces are covered by HSWA unless they have been specifically excluded. For example, HSWA does not apply to the armed forces in certain situations.

Risks to health and safety arise from people being exposed to a hazard (a source or cause of harm). A PCBU must first try to eliminate a risk if this is reasonably practicable. If it is not reasonably practicable to eliminate the risk, it must be minimised so far as is reasonably practicable.

It is a HSWA requirement that farmers work with contractors or other health and safety duty holders when they have the same health and safety duty (overlapping duties). This section explains the concept of overlapping duties.

Using farm vehicles and attached machinery for work can expose workers and other people to risks of death or serious injury, including from loss of control, rollover, collision, being struck, crushing or entanglement.

This ACOP sets out actions for: PCBUs to consult, cooperate and coordinate with other PCBUs on a farm who have the same health and safety duty; PCBUs who have young people on the farm; workers in relation to the worker duties and PPE duties covered in this document.
