Identify relevant WHS/OHS legal requirementsbased on the following scenario.

Bolt and Catch Pty Ltd is a large manufacturer of gate bolts and hinges for commercial and agricultural use. The company has been in business for seventy years and employs a staff of 120 people ranging from managerial, marketing and sales, engineering, trade and production personnel.

You conduct the workplace inspection of the factory. On entering the 'Press Room' you notice signage indicating "Safety Equipment must be worn in this area". Some of the operators are wearing face masks, hearing protection, safety boots and gloves, some employees are wearing an assortment of protective equipment, some none at all.

You find the three new Chinese presses, which are operated by the same number of employees - none of whom are wearing any protective equipment. It is extremely noisy inthe 'Press Room' and the three operators have to continually shout at each other to be heard above the noise emanating from all of the presses.

You observe that the new machines do not have any guarding around the stamping (press) head, as is the case with the other presses. Moreover, a lot of the labelling on the imported machines is written in Chinese. It appears someone has taped some English translation signs next to the Start, Jog and Stop buttons which are located directly above the operator's head out of their line of vision.

As you are entering the car park you notice paramedics wheeling an employee to the back of an ambulance. When you inquire about the nature of the employee's injury, the GM informs you that a forklift driver ran over the employee's foot. The GM further states that a number of the forklift drivers frequent the local hotel during their lunch break.
