Work Health and Safety Act 2011

A volunteer does not commit an offence under this division for a failure to comply with a health and safety duty, except a duty under section 28 (Duties of workers) or section 29 (Duties of other persons at the workplace).

An unincorporated association does not commit an offence under this Act, and is not liable for a civil penalty under this Act, for a failure to comply with a duty or obligation imposed on the unincorporated association under this Act.

A reference to an Act includes a reference to statutory instruments made or in force under the Act, including regulations and any law or instrument applied, adopted or incorporated by the Act (see Legislation Act, s 104).

However—

an officer of an unincorporated association (other than a volunteer) may be liable for a failure to comply with a duty under section 27 (Duties of officers); and

a member of an unincorporated association may be liable for failure to comply with a duty under section 28 or 29.
