This proclamation acts as the \"on switch,\" telling businesses, workers, and regulators exactly when the new rules begin. Without this document, that specific provision would remain inactive."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/building-and-construction-industry-improvement-amendment-ohs-act-2007-proclamation","history":"/api/acts/building-and-construction-industry-improvement-amendment-ohs-act-2007-proclamation/history","analysis":"/api/acts/building-and-construction-industry-improvement-amendment-ohs-act-2007-proclamation/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/building-and-construction-industry-improvement-amendment-ohs-act-2007-proclamation/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/building-and-construction-industry-improvement-amendment-ohs-act-2007-proclamation/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/building-and-construction-industry-improvement-amendment-ohs-act-2007-proclamation/documents"}}
