Information for contractors

Workplace support Contractors Information for contractors

There are several requirements for contractors and subcontractors working at Flinders. Please read through the  Contractor Safety Management Procedure and the Contractor Safety Information Booklet, which outline the information you will need.

Please also refer to the Contractor safety page.

Registration and general induction

Contractors keyboard_arrow_up

There is a registration and induction process for you to follow prior to starting work at Flinders.

Please note, all employees* who will work on site will also require a FAN and will need to be associated with your registered company before starting. Once your staff have a FAN, you can link them to your company record.

Employees will then need to complete the online induction to the University via the portal or the app. You may also need to complete a site-specific induction. There are step-by-step details on the Contractor home page. The induction will give you key information about the University and requirements while working on site.

* conditions apply

Subcontractors keyboard_arrow_up

If you are a subcontractor, working in a closed site or under close supervision of the head contractor, please go through this checklist.

Subcontractor induction check list

Note, you will be required to provide check-in and check-out records when asked to.

Site-specific induction keyboard_arrow_up

Your contact person at the University will complete a site-specific work area induction with you prior to commencing work on site. This is an opportunity to identify the hazards that may exist, and to discuss and agree on how to manage these. The induction will remain current for 12 months or for the duration of the project.

You will both sign off the Work Area Induction Checklist.

Your Flinders contact person will keep a copy on file.

After this initial site induction, contractors are then responsible for ensuring that any other people working on site, including subcontractors, are locally inducted and that this is documented.

Checking in and out of sites keyboard_arrow_up

Use the Now Agent app to check in when you arrive at a Flinders site. Please note that when on site, you may need to adhere to health directions related to COVID-19.

Where Flinders has agreed that check in/out can occur within the construction project boundary, the principal contractor must ensure that there is a site office where all contractors entering or leaving the site are required to check in/out daily.

Please see the instructions in the quick reference guide.

Site rules keyboard_arrow_up

Please read the information below to familiarise yourself with the site rules at Flinders.

  • Keep work areas clean and tidy to prevent danger to the health and safety of others.
  • Clear the site of all equipment, debris, rubbish and spillage at suitable times during and at the end of each day, and when works are completed.
  • Do not use University waste bins or drains to dispose of contractor waste. Contractors are to arrange disposal of all waste and/or excavated material.
  • Dispose of all waste in accordance with Environment Protection Act guidelines.
  • Use personal protective equipment in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions, as directed and as advised by site signage.
  • Report all hazards and incidents via FlinSafe.
  • Flinders University is a fresh air zone across most of the Bedford Park site, except for a small number of designated outdoor smoking areas. All other Flinders University sites are completely smoke-free.
  • Do not consume alcohol or drugs (prescription excepted) on any Flinders site.
  • Possession or use of illegal drugs on any Flinders University site may reported to the Police.
  • Aggressive behaviour such as bullying, fighting, harassment of any kind will not be accepted on any Flinders University site.
  • Leave all site amenities in a clean, tidy and hygienic state after use.
Code of conduct keyboard_arrow_up

Our values of integrity, excellence, innovation and courage are the foundation for our Code of Conduct. The Code is intended to help build a culture of courtesy and respect, and applies to contractors and subcontractors when working at Flinders.

If you are concerned by behaviour that you think may be a breach of the Code, please speak with your contact person at Flinders.
