Contractor management is about making sure the people you bring onto your sites work safely, meet your standards, and protect your reputation. A good contractor management system sets clear rules for how contractors are chosen, inducted, supervised and reviewed, so everyone understands their responsibilities.
Done well, contractor management helps you:
• reduce incidents and near misses on site
• meet your legal duties as a PCBU or principal contractor
• keep projects on time and on budget
• show clients and regulators that you are in control of your risks
It also links closely with your other systems, like safety, environment and quality, so contractors are working to the same standards as your own team.
