Baron Choi · Answer 1

The Prime Contractor

Explanation:

A contract is a legally binding agreement between two or more parties.

The employer obligations in 1926 subpart B talks about the provision of a sanitary and safe work place on a construction site ...

Even though the prime contractor may make arrangement with the sub contractors working on a site on the the provision of these required facilities, nevertheless the overall compliance to this obligation legally falls on the prime contractor and as such, he is responsible for the employer obligation
