Aaaaaaaand 3,2,1, go!

The problem with two finger typing is that only one of them spells...

Tell me about it, Tania. this is unbelievably frustrating, especially when we contract out to three major i.e. billion dollar enterprises in NZ and OMG the pre-qualification CRAP we have to submit, jeez lol. I'm sure these things are initiated by people with the sole purpose of only justifying their position, yet with little thought to the faffing about it causes at the other end. Sigh...

I'm sure I heard on the AM show this morning, where they were discussing these very things, that ACC has already had 14 claims as results of injuries from/incurred by the things?

Sarcasm: I recognise it... :-)

Update:

First, thanks to everyone who replied - very much appreciated and also all comments were very interesting, so thanks to all for your contributions.

We have Kept the employees signing the toolbox meeting forms for now, however TBH I do not think this will last beyond the end of the year if it even gets canned before then - for most of the "clutter" reasons above.

Thanks again everybody!

Fair comment Mike. Understand what you're saying however there are examples - such as for our company - where we contract to a very large NZ organisation who demand we have JSAs signed by whoever is working on that task and also anyone who attends a toolbox meeting must sign.

Beauty. Cheers Chris.

Awesome, thanks Rebecca. Interesting point re worksafe not accepting any tickbox signoff - although quite obvious why I guess. Cheers.

Personally I would be extremely interested to see comments stating that sexual harassment and bullying are NOT legitimate workplace hazards that need to be dealt with - and the justification.
Having just left a company that's had 6 such incidents in 24 months I fail to see how anyone can think these are not legitimate hazards.
No-one gets up in the morning in the hope they are going to be bullied/harassed at work in the same way no-one gets ready to go to the pub of a Friday night hoping they're going to get stabbed in a fight.
The risk to H&S on the job is quite obvious i.e. if a person is concentrating more on the bullying/harassment then of course they do not have their minds front & centre on the job therefore the odds of the predictable happening are raised considerably.
