Health & Safety at Work Act 2015. Obligations as a Commercial Landlord
The Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA) elevated the obligations on commercial landlords. The HSWA introduced the central concept of “PCBU”s, or Person(s) Conducting a Business or Undertaking. PCBUs owe duties and obligations to workers, tenants and other people (e.g. visitors to a property) to ensure safety. All commercial landlords are PCBUs and therefore owe duties and obligations to workers, tenants and other people (visitors to the property etc) to ensure the property owned by them is safe. If a PCBU fails to meet their obligations, there can be serious consequences.
