Clearing Sales Australia is able to provide Occupational Health & Safety (OHS) services for your clearing sale. Our qualified assessors will make OHS simple and affordable.
The service normally takes the form of a pre-sale on-farm visit to undertake an individual risk assessment of sale items, including the requirements for prospective purchasers to bring individual items up to the required safety standards before use. These standards are set by OHS legislation in each Australian State and the risk assessment process while not infallible, does give the seller some measure of protection from potential legal action taken by a purchaser who may be injured after using a second-hand sale item.
At the fall of the hammer, successful purchasers of each item are required to sign the attached risk assessment thereby acknowledging their responsibility to undertake any necessary repairs to the purchased item, prior to use. Alternatively, items that are not considered viable to be repaired are nominated to be sold for scrap. This is also consistent with the requirements of State OHS Legislation.
Clearing Sale Risk Assessments are an essential part of holding your clearing sale. To ensure you keep your liability risks as low as you can, have Clearing Sales Risk Assessor Matt Dando provide the service for you.
