If a member of the public, a contractor or an employee gets injured on an unsafe building site, it can become a costly business for chippies, with the prospect of them facing bank-breaking fi nes. What measures can builders take to protect themselves? What measures can they take to protect the public, contractors and employees?

Construction can be a dangerous business and a rather costly one if you’re the principal builder on a project and a member of the public, a contractor or an employee gets injured on your site. With the increased pressure of keeping businesses open whilst construction work or renovations are being carried out, the likelihood of accidents happening and builders being held to ransom is becoming an ever increasing possibility.

As with most things, the motto ‘prevention is better than cure’ can be a blessing in disguise. A builder’s fi rst and most powerful line of defence against on-site accidents is to prevent them from happening in the fi rst place by being extra pedantic when it comes to making your building site as safe and sound as possible.

The Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992 is the builder’s site safety bible. It provides instructions on how to accident-proof a site in all areas that spell danger including those that are specifi cally dangerous for passers-by or those unfamiliar with building sites.

So what are some of the key dangers builders have to consider? One major hazard is objects falling from buildings and scaffolding, including debris, scaffolding planks or bundles of building materials ‘in transit’ above by-passers’ heads. Also on the perilous side are construction trucks that suddenly appear out of nowhere, including footpaths frequented by pedestrians.

Speaking of footpaths, there’s often the issue of pedestrians having to walk on the road because the construction site leaves them no other choice. And some of these pedestrians will be people who are older, have disabilities, or parents who are trying to get prams across

obstacles such as hoses, rubbish, building materials and kerb detours.

Slippery materials such as mud, paint or concrete covering footpaths or ending up splattered over unsuspecting foot traffi c also pose a risk of injury, as does people traversing the site having to make their way past scaffolding tubes, rubbish and building materials or stumbling over weirdly positioned sole plates.

Excavations are another biggie – there’s always the chance an adult, or even worse, a child could fall into them.

Building sites can also be perilous to traffi c, if construction trucks are parked on the road, for example, or carry huge loads that make navigating a person’s way through traffi c a nightmare.

Another aspect that needs to be considered is how safe and secure a construction site is after hours.

So what can or rather should you, the builder and your staff do to guarantee that the public is safe when crossing your site? According to the Health and Safety in Employment Act guidelines, one crucial aspect you should take care of is that pedestrian detours are clearly defi ned, and that they are protected from road dangers when using those detours.

You also need to supervise the passage of your construction trucks across footpaths and make sure there is suffi cient signage or protective fencing

to stop a person passing under suspended loads. That includes contractors and employees as well as passersby. Scaffolding that obstructs footpaths, also needs to be clearly marked and padded, if they pose any risk of injury.

If there are excavations, these should be fenced, or covered, especially if they retain water as this could put kids at risk of drowning. And they should have warning signs, especially at night when there is nobody on site to supervise.

Now, we all know that sticking to every facet of any law can be a ‘hard act to follow’, which is where Site Safe comes in. This small independent organisation was set up in consultation with the construction industry, OSH, building and property owners and developers, as well as architects and engineers, to help reduce on-site injuries. Site Safe’s mission is to help you plan and coordinate your building project both before and during construction, and to provide everyone involved in the industry a better understanding of their responsibility under the Health and Safety in Employment Act. For details, go to www.sitesafe.org

Now, even if you take all of the above safety precautions, as Murphy’s Law will have it, there’s always the very human possibility that a member of the public, a contractor or an employee will have an accident on your site no matter what.

trade talk

ACC takes care of personal injury, but in some cases where a principle builder or contractor has been deemed ‘extremely negligent’; the injured party might be awarded extra costs and damages for which the builder or contractor in charge may be responsible. An example is a case last year where a builder had to fork out in excess of $40,000 for a woman who fell and broke her arm on the Dunedin site a builder was overseeing.

To prevent this scenario from happening, John Lucas from the Insurance Council of New Zealand strongly advises that principal builders/contractors,

in other words those overseeing a building project, take out Public Liability Insurance. The good thing about this insurance is that it not only protects you against injury to another person, but also against damage to third party property. So for example, if a sheet of roofing iron falls on your car (or its owner for that matter) Public Liability Insurance will cover you for these eventualities.

Hello to all readers of trade leader

My name is Brent Waldron and I am the new Chief Executive of Carters. I am a Kiwi returning from Australia to take up this role and am delighted to have joined the Carters team. Carters have a proud history over 150 years and it is a privilege to take custodianship of this business heritage.

I am currently working my way around our 52 nationwide stores with the objective of having visited them all within my first 6 weeks. One thing that has pleased and impressed me is the commitment of our people to their customers. The Carters people I have met have a genuine commitment to the success of their customers and to the welfare of the communities that they live in. In many cases, this has become a strong personal bond.

At Carters, we understand that our customers are our business and that we have to keep finding new ways to deliver cost effective and smart products and services to keep our customers successful. In contributing to our customers’ success, we will continue the Carters legacy for the people who come after us.

I am looking forward to meeting with and listening to our customers during and outside of my branch visits. We all understand that 2009 was a challenging year for our industry and that world economic conditions

will dictate the pace of the recovery. However, I am also of the view that our businesses will emerge stronger and better placed to benefit from an upturn.

The resilience, hard work and determination of Kiwis should never be underestimated. We are all descendants of people who braved the unknown and “gave it a go”. We try things because no-one ever told us we can’t; in some cases, because someone told us we can’t! We don’t wait for someone to tell us we can.

I’m backing our Kiwi customers to shine through and our Carters people to help make that happen.

Looking forward to seeing you soon,

Brent Waldron Chief Executive

rotoruaRotorua Youth Justice residence close to completionA 30 bed youth justice residence is due to open in Rotorua later this year.

Te Maioha o Parekarangi is a purpose-built residence, run by Child, Youth and Family. It will provide rehabilitation and therapeutic programmes for young people to address the reasons for their offending and support them to get their lives back on track, in a secure live-in environment.

Carters Rotorua is one of the main suppliers of carpentry materials for the build which is being carried out by Watts and Hughes Construction.

It’s the fourth purpose-built residence in the country for young offenders and will allow young people aged 14-17 years from the area to stay closer to their family and help with their return to the community. Similar residences are in Auckland, Palmerston North and Christchurch.

Built on a 9 hectare site south of the city on land leased from the Parekarangi Trust, the residence has three 10 bed residential units, a secure unit, a life skills/transition to independence unit, administration block, hall, and buildings for other educational, recreational and cultural activities.

Around 100 staff are being recruited to provide 24/7 care at the residence, including social workers, youth workers, night staff, chefs and cooks and administration staff.

InvercargillFast food, even faster constructionKFC likes its buildings constructed the way it likes its food – fast and with a strong impact.

When it put out its tender for one of its outlets in Invercargill to be demolished and a new one built and ready for open day, all within 13 weeks, Archer Construction was keen to take up the challenge.

When news came his firm had won the contract director Kerry Archer wasn’t afraid to take on a project that could truly test the performance of any business.

The company demolished the original 300sqm brick, plaster and concrete building and quickly began work on the new timber framed showcase outlet, eagerly watched not just by KFC head office but also by the food outlet’s customers around the area.

It’s the tightest timeframe the construction firm has ever needed to work to. The frame was constructed on site and within eight weeks the exterior cladding was up and the windows installed.

“One of the biggest challenges has been the weather,” says Archer. “There was so much rain in the area that roads and bridges were closed within 10km. The rain caused a lot of difficulty for us – for instance with getting the membrane for the roofing installed and trying to get a watertight building for everyone to work in.

“Another of the challenges of having such a tight time frame has been needing to have so many sub-trades working on the building at the same time - there have been up to 15 working alongside each other, which has kept our contracts manager George Francis and site foreman Ray Quinlan on their toes in terms of organisation.”

Archers, which is celebrating its 30th year in business and has a team of 18, is certainly proving it’s no chicken when it comes to taking on a challenge!

is valid only if the donor, the person giving the authority, has the capacity to deal with the matters themselves. The power therefore becomes invalid if the donor become mentally incapable. Unlike an ordinary power of attorney however, an enduring power of attorney remains in effect when the donor becomes mentally incapable. An enduring power of attorney is often considered by those who are concerned about who will look after their affairs if they are rendered unable to do so.

An enduring power of attorney in relation to Personal Care and Welfare enables the appointment of an attorney to look after the donor if they become sick or incapable of making decisions in terms of their personal care and welfare. Only one person can be authorised to act under such a power of attorney.

The Protection of Personal and Property Rights Act 1988 provides the legal framework under which enduring powers of attorney can be arranged. The purpose of the Act is to protect the rights of people to manage their own

affairs and to make their own decisions, especially in circumstances where through age, accident or illness they may be rendered incapable of doing so. The Act allows people to plan for the future by granting a power of attorney.

It is important to choose carefully who you appoint as an attorney. You may appoint a number of people to act on your behalf in relation to different matters concerning property. It is common practice for people to appoint relatives or professional advisors such as a lawyer or an accountant as their attorney. In the case of an enduring power of attorney the appointed person must be an individual over 20 years old, they cannot be bankrupt or subject to a personal or property order.

Finally, like wills and other long term documents, powers of attorney should be periodically reviewed and updated as necessary to refl ect who you currently wish to make decisions on your behalf. They can be retained by your lawyer if necessary for safekeeping.

KiwiSaver has been around a while but it is still a topic a lot of our clients have questions on. Many of the questions raised are common ones and are driven primarily by employees.

This article is going to look at addressing questions from the employee.

Maybe laterEnrolment into the KiwiSaver scheme is automatic once you start a new

job and optional to join up if you are currently employed (and haven’t enrolled previously). This is where a lot of people get confused. If you do not want to be a part of KiwiSaver you have to fi ll out a KiwiSaver “opt out” form between the 2nd and 8th week of starting your new job otherwise, consider yourself enrolled. You can apply for a late opt out but the success of this is extremely limited, so if opting out is your thing, it’s best to opt out within the 2nd and 8th week timeframe.

I could use a holidayA contribution holiday mean - basically you can elect to stop contributing to your KiwiSaver scheme. You can apply for a contribution holiday after you have been in KiwiSaver for 12 months or more. The contribution holidays can last anywhere between three months and fi ve years and there is no limit to the number of contribution holidays you take. It is possible to take a contribution holiday within the fi rst 12 months of employment, however, you would need to demonstrate that you are in fi nancial diffi culty or are likely to be in the future.

I’d make more money buying Lotto ticketsIs joining KiwiSaver worth it? There are a number of schools of thought here, however, it really depends on your fi nancial profi le. For example, are you disciplined enough to save regularly and able to make wise investment decisions for your future retirement that deliver a return greater than what you would get from investing in KiwiSaver? A lot of people say they live on the “breadline” and aren’t in a fi nancial position to afford KiwiSaver contributions – can these people afford not to?

Home sweet homeThinking of buying your fi rst home? There is a fi rst home subsidy available to members of a KiwiSaver scheme that have been contributing regularly for 3 years and are buying their fi rst home (if you are not buying your fi rst home, but are in the same position of a person buying their fi rst home, there are exceptions). The subsidy is $1,000 for each year of contributing to KiwiSaver (maximum of $5,000); if you have a spouse who is eligible

this could mean a subsidy of $10,000.Show me the moneyCan I get the funds out, if so when and how? The answer is yes. You can get the funds out, including the government contribution and employer contributions as a lump sum when you turn 65 and qualify for superannuation. If you want to get the funds out before then, you need to be suffering from what the IRD determines to be signifi cant hardship (in that case you can only withdraw your contributions not the government kick start) or if you move oversees permanently.

Legal Matters is recognised by the Department of Building and Housing as contributing towards the Licensed Building Practitioner scheme for skills maintenance. So if you are a Carpentry, Site 1 and 2 building participant by reading this article you will get 1 point towards your skills maintenance.

A Power of At torney is a legal document which authorises a person or persons to act on behalf of another person. A power of attorney can authorise a person to act on your behalf for your fi nancial or property affairs or for your personal care and welfare.

Powers of attorney may also be granted by a Company (not a person in their capacity as a director) or by a Trustee.

A power of attorney is useful for those who expect to be unavailable to sign documents or make decisions for reasons such as leaving the country on business or holiday, for health reasons expecting to be rendered

incapable of making important decisions for a time, or simply wishing to pass over the decision making powers to colleagues, professionals or family members.

A power of attorney enables you to ensure that during your absence your fi nancial matters, such as your property affairs, are attended to by an authorised person. You can authorise the attorney to have the consent to act on your behalf in all matters, or you can limit the authority to specifi c matters only. The limitations in a power of attorney may include that particular assets are to be managed on your behalf, how long the power is to be valid for or when the power of attorney is valid e.g. only when you are out of New Zealand.

There are two types of powers of attorney, one being an ordinary power of attorney the second being an enduring power of attorney. An ordinary power of attorney is valid until it is cancelled, or if it is for a fi xed term until that term expires. An ordinary power of attorney

With the launch of Carters new SmartDoor Insulated Sectional Garage Doors range, many builders have been asking the question, why would you bother insulating your garage?

A Christchurch builder who recently purchased a SmartDoor without realizing it was insulated asked that very question. They pointed out that the design had positioned the laundry inside the garage. The garage was being lined as most internal access garages are, so the cost to insulate two more walls and a ceiling was not a lot extra in the context of the entire project. The result… a happy wife and a builder that was pleased he’d ‘accidently’ ordered an insulated door!

On the fl ip side, in summer you often have to open the garage door to let the heat out! As the steel of a single skin door heats up the heat is transferred directly into your garage. The insulated door panels offer the same protection from heat transfer in summer as they do for heat loss in winter.

The other bonus of an insulated door is

the 40mm thick panels don’t have that noisy ‘rattle’ often present with single skin doors and along with the quiet door operation the panels also reduce the transfer of noise to and from the home.

Since internal access garages became commonplace, the function of the home garage has changed signifi cantly. No longer is it just a room where the Holden, lawnmower and beer crates are stored, but increasingly garages are used as multi-purpose rooms.

Andrew Haglund Operations Manager for Signature Homes North Shore recently placed a SmartDoor in their Stonefi eld’s showhome. “It was a no brainer for us, our sales team use the garage as an offi ce during its time as a showhome, so to be able to insulate the room and make it quieter for them was great. The door actually looks a lot nicer on the inside as well, and the cost was similar to a standard door.”

So perhaps the question really should be; “why wouldn’t you insulate your garage?”

SmartDoors are available exclusively from your local Carters store and more information can be found at www.smartdoor.co.nz

Future-Proof Your BusinessCMS began their 2010 Future-Proof Building Roadshow series in May.

Last year’s events hosted almost 3,000 trade professionals across sixteen venues. This year’s events are delivering some topical presentations from DBH, BRANZ, and Edmund Lawler and Associates, as well as innovative products from 30 leading suppliers in the construction industry. CMS are excited to be revisiting Gisborne after many years, and also visiting Rotorua.

The 2010 Roadshow series will highlight different strategies and thought-provoking ideas to make sure trade professionals like you are kept abreast of changes in our industry, new product innovation and required skills to continue to operate at the forefront. This should assist in creating a thriving business for you, attracting and retaining customers and maximizing the value offered to your customers.

And best of all these Roadshow events are still free to attend!

This year CMS introduces three key note speakers:

Department of Building and Housing (DBH) - Paul Alsford will cover topical areas such as trade licensing, clarifying the Licensed Builder Practitioner (LBP) scheme. Also discussed will be changes made to the building consent process

and proposed legislation changes in the pipeline from government.

Edmund Lawler and Associates - Edmund Lawler will speak on facilitating some of the Government changes into commercial reality, managing liability risks and the single hazard class for timber treatment. This is presented with thanks to Carters.

BRANZ - Chris Kane or Richard Arkinstall will give an insight into the extent of some of the BRANZ global research into building design and specification, examining significant development trends, and what the shape of construction in NZ could look like in 20 years time.

The Future-Proof Building Roadshow breakfast dates remaining are:

Tauranga – 29th June - Baypark

HEALTH WATCH

I love making fi shing television and never lose enthusiasm for meeting people and exploring wonderful places. The Gone Fishin team head to Western Australia this month to focus on fi lming whale sharks and catching giant trevally and sailfi sh. I am also greatly intrigued by the pearling history in Broome and have been researching all sorts of interesting stories on the subject.

Western Australia gives us a chance to take you somewhere new and different.

From this month we are off air for 12 weeks while Geoff Thomas does his stint, although we will run a series of late Thursday night repeats.

The line up for the next group of twelve episodes is fantastic and will include Western Australia.

Before series 18 swings into gear, there is an entirely different fi shing show going to air. Match Fishing League is a project I decided to become involved in last year and it turns fi shing into a competitive sport.

Imagine fi ve teams competing against each other in a home and away series. Match Fishing League utilises two identical Extreme 610 centre console boats powered with Yamaha 150 four stroke outboards. The home team gets to set the rules including target species,

points value, gear to be used and any other little twist that they perceive may give them a competitive advantage. Two points for a win, one for a draw and nothing for a loss.

I think that MFL will be great television. This is not just another bunch of anglers going out to catch fi sh; this is fi shing television with a genuine difference.

For me, the more fi shing we have on ‘the box’ the happier I am but it was time for at least one show to break the shackles and produce something new.

When Gone Fishin’ reappears you will notice some changes also; more underwater footage, some seriously good ways to cook seafood and all in glorious high defi nition.

Carters are, of course, supporting both series. The Carters Casters are one of the fi ve teams competing in this years MFL competition and they are a bunch of ‘young guns’ full of enthusiasm but how will they go against the wily old Yuasa Seafarers, a team chock full of experience?

Bay of Islands legend Captain Bucko and his all ‘girl’ team should be unbeatable on their home turf. They appear as the Selleys Reel Appeal team. Representing the Bay of Plenty, enter the fray Michael Rendle editor of Coast to Coast magazine and the Hooked on Kia Team and last but not least a team of commercial and recreational guys called the Oceanz Pirates. We have fi lmed the competition, it’s in the can, and we know you will love it; in the meantime check out the website www.matchfi shingleague.co.nz

Imagine a Match Fishing League test match or series against Aussie and South Africa. Imagine a whole new bunch of sporting heroes that our kids can aspire to. Imagine competing in the MFL qualifying rounds and winning the right to represent your region. Imagine also becoming one of those anglers that competes against Aussie. Match Fishing League is here and I think you are going to love it - especially if you get a chance to compete.

Tight Lines!

ADHESIVE APPLICATION OF TITAN FAÇADE PANEL Using the correct amount of adhesive when installing James Hardie Titan® Façade Panel to CLD® Structural Cavity Battens is an important tip. Follow the three simple steps below:

1. Mark the correct bead size on your cartridge. The method used will depend on the type of nozzle you have. Either

Cut the end off the threaded stub on cartridge, screw on marked nozzle and cut nozzle to 6mm bead size at a 45º marked angle or

Screw on marked nozzle to cartridge and cut nozzle to 6mm bead size at a 45º marked angle. Pierce internal membrane with nail or similar object.

2. Fit cartridge into caulking gun.

3. Ensure battens are clean, dry and free from any loose material, then extrude the sealant fi rmly as a continuous 6mm thick bead of adhesive sealant. Use either Seal -N-Flex-1 or Sikafl ex-11FC over the CLD Structural Battens. The adhesive is to be applied full length of the Titan Façade Panel.

Adhesive beads thicker than 6mm will prevent the panels from being pushed tight against the CLD Structural Cavity Battens. i.e. the compression on the adhesive must be correct. Do not rely on mechanical fi xing. Excessive adhesive could result in fi xings moving.

Note: These helpful tips must be read in conjunction with the Titan Façade Panel Technical Specifi cation available for download at www.jameshardie.co.nz or simply ask James Hardie 0800 808 868. The product must be installed in accordance with this specifi cation.
