As an OHS Online user, what are the mandatory legal appointments which I need to have in place?
A great question! By definition, the OHS Act and its Regulations, require a number of legal appointments to be made in health and safety, which are considered mandatory. Most of these appointments are general appointments required in health and safety, while the GMR (2)(1) is applicable to specific work environments where machinery would be used. The table below, briefly summarises these mandatory appointments for your reference:

2023-09-16 21:02:05Dear Emeldah Thank you for your question via our comments... We currently only support the Occupational Health and Safety Act 85 of 1993, your question is regarding a Legal Appointment structure that is required for the construction of a coal load-out facility in a Mine, you would have to do research around the Mines Act...
