Trade Mark Terms

Work Health & Safety (WHS) Terms

High Risk Construction Work

Visitors must not enter any areas where they could be at risk of being exposed to ‘high risk construction work’ being carried out on site. Examples of this would be the “operating envelope” of a crane lifting materials, any powered mobile plant (e.g. excavator, bobcat) being operated nearby, any actions at a height of more than 2 meters including climbing a ladder, entering scaffolding (even scaffold stairs) or where objects could fall down onto a person.

Drones

No client or visitor shall use a drone of any type without first obtaining written approval from Ausbuild.

Duties of a visitor

Section 705 of the WHS Regulation (Qld) 2011 states that any person at a workplace, including clients and other visitors, must take reasonable care of their own health and safety and of others who may be affected by their actions or omissions.

Smoking

No smoking is allowed inside Ausbuild dwellings as of frame stage. Smoking is allowed outdoors only and it is important to ensure butts are fully extinguished and then place discarded butts in the rubbish cages.

Site Emergency and/or Evacuation Instructions

The chance of a site emergency and/or evacuation occurring during a visit to site is very remote. If an emergency occurs which requires evacuation of the site, then please remain calm and make your way to the safest and most direct route to a final exit and then assemble at a safe area e.g. footpath or adjacent vacant block.

In all emergencies and serious incidents, the priorities (listed in decreasing order of importance) are:

• to preserve the health and safety of nearby people

• to render assistance to casualties, particularly by obtaining help from trained personnel (e.g. First Aiders, Ambulance Officers)

• to preserve the scene (relevant evidence) for any investigation

• to report the incident to an Ausbuild Supervisor or the WHS Team by phone as soon as reasonably practicable to determine whether the incident is a “notifiable incident”

• do not leave site until instructed to do so by the WHS Team or higher authority (e.g. director or police)

Terms of Reference – The Ausbuild Community Fund (Moreton Bay) Review Panel

Introduction and Purpose

Ausbuild Pty Ltd ABN 76 464 427 (Ausbuild) launched its local community grant program in early 2022 in the Moreton Bay region, known as The Sanctuary Community Fund. The community-building grant program provided $100,000 over two funding rounds in 2022 to local sports, community clubs, projects and charities across Warner, Eatons Hill, Albany Creek, Bray Park and Strathpine, being areas that directly surround Ausbuild’s Warner master planned community, The Sanctuary.

Fourteen community initiatives benefited from the two rounds of funding, which provided much needed resources for school facilities, equipment and uniforms for community clubs, and a program for vulnerable young mothers.

In 2023, Ausbuild is renewing and extending the grant program to include the whole of the Moreton Bay Local Government Area. With this expansion to benefit all of the Moreton Bay community, the program is being re-launched as The Ausbuild Community Fund (Moreton Bay) Grant Program (Program).

The purpose of the Program is for Ausbuild to provide financial assistance in the form of a grant from the Ausbuild Community Fund (Moreton Bay) (ACF (Moreton Bay)) to local entities interested in responding to local challenges or opportunities through an initiative, project or activity (Initiative) that strengthens social connections, contributes to sustainable growth, community capability and capacity, and supports the long-term health and wellbeing of the region and its people.

Ausbuild will administer the Program and select grant recipients at its discretion, with funding recommendations from The Ausbuild Community Fund (Moreton Bay) Review Panel (Review Panel).

The Review Panel consists of members from The Sanctuary Community Reference Group (CRG) in Warner and members of the Moreton Bay community, and forms part of Ausbuild’s commitment to meaningful engagement and open, transparent communication with the whole of the Moreton Bay community.

Objectives and Scope

The objective of the Review Panel is to assess applications made for grants under the ACF (Moreton Bay) and provide recommendations to Ausbuild about grant recipients.

The Review Panel will favour applications that clearly demonstrate the aim and objectives of the ACF (Moreton Bay), in particular, those that:

• maximise the delivery of local projects or programs that support the region’s sustainable growth
• foster happy, healthy and connected communities by supporting the wellbeing of the region’s current and future residents; and
• protect and enhance the local natural environment.

The scope of the ACF is further outlined in The Ausbuild Community Fund (Moreton Bay) Grant Program Guideline, available from the Ausbuild website.

Powers of the Review Panel

The Review Panel provides information, advice and views and, where sought, recommendations to Ausbuild. The group has the opportunity to influence Ausbuild’s decision making, however, does not have decision making authority.

Membership

Membership on the Review Panel is voluntary. Membership will consist of:

• A maximum of two (2) community members from the Moreton Bay Local Government Area, all of whom are appointed through the Expression of Interest process in these Terms of Reference

Member Responsibilities

By virtue of applying to and participating in the Review Panel, members will:

• Attend and participate at review and recommendation meetings
• Adhere to these Terms of Reference
• Represent broad community views
• Not disrupt proceedings of the Review Panel or Ausbuild’s general business
• Provide information and advice to Ausbuild on ACF (Moreton Bay) applications.

Term

The term of membership is one (1) year, subject to compliance with these Terms of Reference. It is expected that there will be two (2) meetings (of approximately 1 hour each) of the Review Panel over the 12-month term, plus a 1-hour onboarding session undertaken virtually with the Facilitator.

Vacancy

Termination

A member may be removed from the Review Panel if they:

• are absent from one of the two meetings of the Review Panel

Any decision to terminate a member’s participation will be at the sole discretion of the independent facilitator and no discussion will be entered into.

Members may terminate their own membership at any time. Notice of membership termination must be provided in writing to the Facilitator.

Quorum

Where a decision of the Review Panel is required, judgement will favour the majority with consideration given to recommendations for initiatives spread fairly across the Moreton Bay Local Government Area.

Expression of Interest Process

Membership on the Review Panel will be advertised and managed through an Expression of Interest (EOI) process to be undertaken every 12 months or as required by Ausbuild.

Interested community members will be required to complete an EOI application to be considered for membership. Submissions will be assessed by a panel comprising an Ausbuild team member, a relevant project consultant, and an independent facilitator based on eligibility criteria, and responses to selection criteria.

The EOI will be advertised on the Ausbuild website, and in local newspapers for two (2) weeks.  Ausbuild will also write to a cross section of community leaders (such as schools, sporting clubs, businesses and recreation providers) to ensure broad awareness of the Review Panel and encourage membership.

Interested members will be required to submit an EOI application, meeting the eligibility and selection criteria, by the due date stipulated in the advertisement. Successful and unsuccessful applicants will be notified in writing.

This stipend applies to both virtual and in-person meetings. The stipend is also paid in reflection of the time required to provide a review and recommendations for a funding round of the Program.
