NEAR-MISS INCIDENT: Lot 158 - Vent grille in one bathroom - 14Apr2020 |
Date: |
15/4/20, 10:09 |
Good morning,
This is sent in compliance with SSMA 2015 Section 43.
a) On 9 February 2020, vent grille in one bathroom fell from the ceiling
and crashed into the ground. It was lucky that nobody was at home at the
time.
Since then multiple efforts to get it replaced or properly repaired failed.
b) Last repair was on 8 April 2020, when handyman found the fourth clip
and the vent grille was put back into the ceiling. Sadly, it was
short-lived.
c) On 14 April 2020, whilst our daughter was in the bathroom, the grille
fell down missing her head by few centimeters. That would have been a
major incident with possibility of injury or even more serious harm.
SMS was sent to handyman (attachment

SP52948 is already confirmed for discriminating Lot 158 because of their
attempts to enforce proper management of the complex.
These four repairs are outstanding for Lot 158:
a) Replacement of obsolete and partially inoperative smoke detectors.
b) Serious water-leak damage in laundry due to burst pipe problem coming
from Lot 159 (currently waiting for walls to dry before further actions).
c) Vent grille in one bathroom.
d) Poor ventilation in one bathroom (significant difference in air flow
between the two bathrooms was well documented for Waratah Strata
Management and maintenance staff since June 2018). Lot 158
learned that maintenance staff silently organized vent grille
checks and cleanups for several owners in Block A and B.
We hope you understand the serious consequences of not repairing the
common property and directly causing health and safety risks.
Regards,
