R v ACR Roofing Pty Ltd was a decision by the Victorian Court of Appeal in Australia. A construction company was engaged to complete works on a roof which were not meant to proceed without the installation of safety equipment. The company hired a worker employed by another company who died as a result of the safety equipment not being installed. The Court ultimately held the principal construction company liable under Victorian workplace health and safety legislation.
