From the study guide
Maintaining a safe work environment is the foundational responsibility of a Tilesetter, ensuring that both the tradesperson and the public remain protected from job-site hazards. This involves proactive housekeeping, such as the immediate removal of debris, slurry, and off-cuts, which are common slip and trip hazards in tiling. By adhering to Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) regulations and site-specific safety plans, you minimize liability and prevent costly work stoppages due to accidents.
