Occupational Health & Safety (OHS)

OHS is a passion of Luke’s. Early in his career Luke focussed largely on OHS to increase his knowledge and experience in a burgeoning area of law

He managed several large defences for large scale gas and building clients.  Luke has extensive experience in managing critical OHS incidents from start to finish, managing WorkSafe Inspectors and their investigations and protecting the client at all stages to provide the best possible defence for a client (if one reasonably exists).

Again, Luke’s pragmatism will shine through and if a matter is more suitable for a plea negotiation, based on his experience, Luke will not hesitate to so advise.

Luke often runs seminars on managing OHS incidents from the investigation phase all the way to the litigation phase. He also works closely with clients on preventative OHS in the form of employee training (including training for Board members/legal privilege protection), policy development, site management and risk assessment procedures and the like.

The penalties in this area are severe and often poor decisions early on an incident and investigation by unrepresented clients can cost a Company and a possible defence dearly. Get representation early.

If an OHS incident occurs at your workplace you should call an ambulance, then call Luke to establish early protection for your business. Seriously.
