Who must register plant?
The owner is required to register registrable plant. Owner includes any person leasing the plant or a mortgagee in possession of registrable plant.
An owner of plant must not use the plant, or permit the plant to be used at a workplace unless the plant has been registered. Owners who want to register a plant must apply to Workplace Health and Safety on Form 8 - Application for registration of registrable plant (PDF, 99 KB).
Schedule 4 to the Workplace Health and Safety Regulation 2008 lists the plant that requires plant design registration. It is the responsibility of the owner, if applicable, to ensure the plant design is registered in accordance with Schedule 4. Plant registration does not allow usage of the plant, should the above not be complied with.
