Contractors provide services ranging from the performance of relatively simple tasks, such as maintenance of office equipment, to more hazardous activities, e.g. window cleaning, construction work or work with electrical systems A contractor is someone who schools can ask to do work and who is not an employee. Any school business manager or caretaker with responsibility for health and safety should be aware of their obligations both to the school and to the contractor.
