Psychosocial Risk Workshop

In this workshop we will support you to take a proactive approach in identifying and understanding what the main psychosocial factors are in your workplace and how to minimise the negative impacts. 

Prequalification Support & Contractor Management

We support organisations to effectively manage contractor health and safety-and contractors to clearly demonstrate robust H&S systems through pre‑qualification.

Our practical, no‑guesswork approach helps both parties confidently meet pre‑qualification and contractor safety requirements. For organisations, we strengthen contractor management and PCBU compliance. For contractors, we help you evidence capability so you can win work and protect your reputation.

PCBU duties cannot be transferred. You remain responsible for health and safety outcomes even when:

  • Work is carried out off‑site
  • Contractors are engaged
  • A “qualified” third party is used

We help you put the right controls in place, demonstrate due diligence, and meet your obligations with confidence.

Why it matters

Strong pre‑qualification and contractor management reduce risk, support compliance, and build trust. They demonstrate contractor capability and give clients confidence that work will be delivered safely, reliably, and with minimal disruption.

Clear systems. Confident contractors. Reduced risk.

HSEQ Management System Gap Analysis

Our gap analysis clearly shows where your system meets requirements and

and avoid costly compliance surprises.

Independent gap analysis against recognised HSEQ standards,
including:

  • ISO 45001 (Health & Safety)
  • ISO 9001 (Quality)
  • ISO 14001 (Environment)
  • And other applicable frameworks

Outcomes include:

  • Improved quality and consistency of service
  • Streamlined systems and workflows, saving time and cost
  • Increased employee confidence, accountability, and engagement

Health & Safety Systems Audit

Gain clarity and confidence with a comprehensive Health and Safety Systems Audit.

Our audits provide an in‑depth review of your organisation’s H&S systems and safety culture. This includes an onsite visit to meet with key H&S stakeholders, a site tour, and a review of relevant documentation and records.

You’ll receive a clear, practical audit report outlining system strengths, identified gaps, and prioritised recommendations for improvement.

Benchmarking data is also included, giving insight into how your organisation compares with others of similar size and sector-helping you understand risk, maturity, and opportunities to improve.

Risk Assessment Workshop

Have you identified your critical risks? Do you need to assess your risk register or strengthen an existing one? Unsure whether your current controls are effective?

Our Risk Assessment Workshop is an interactive, practical session designed to help you clearly identify the risks and hazards in your workplace, understand how serious they are, and assess whether the controls you have in place are working.

You’ll gain confidence in your risk management approach and leave with a draft risk register, along with clear, prioritised actions to make meaningful health and safety improvements.
