4.2 Needs and expectations of workers and interested parties
Identify interested parties (workers, subcontractors, clients, authorities) and which of their needs become compliance obligations.
What this clause is about
Know who has a stake in your safety performance — workers, clients, consultants, authorities, neighbours — and what they expect from you.
Questions auditors ask
- Who are your interested parties?
- Which of their needs have you taken on as obligations?
- How do you keep this list current?
