Section 333R — Fair Work Act 2009: Actions under work health and safety laws permitted
Text of the provision Official document
Section 115 of the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 and corresponding provisions of corresponding WHS laws (within the meaning of that Act) do not apply in relation to an application made under subsection 333N(3) that includes an application for an order under section 333P. Note: Ordinarily, if a person makes an application under subsection 333N(3) for an order under section 333P in relation to particular conduct, then section 115 of the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 and corresponding provisions of corresponding WHS laws would prohibit a proceeding from being commenced, or an application from being made or continued, under those laws in relation to the same conduct. This section removes that prohibition.
