In 2014/15 WorkSafe WA is conducting a proactive inspection campaign focusing on the electrical, electronic and gas appliance retailing, with a view to improving safety within the industry. The campaign will involve Inspectors visiting retailing outlets to identify common safety risks and provide employers with information on how to comply with occupational safety and health requirements.

This checklist has been developed to highlight safety risks and provide information on how to best manage those risks to minimise workplace injuries and comply with occupational safety and health legislation.
