Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004

Immediately on entering a place under Division 3, an inspector must take all reasonable steps to notify the following persons of the entry and to produce his or her identity card for inspection by those persons—

the occupier or apparent occupier for the time being of the place;

if members of a designated work group are affected in any way by the entry, a health and safety representative for the designated work group.

However, an inspector is not required to notify, or produce his or her identity card for inspection by, a person if—

to do so would defeat the purpose for which the place was entered or cause unreasonable delay; or

the person is already aware that the inspector has entered the place or was notified in advance of when he or she would enter.
