    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.

    Our Solutions

    Prequalification Support– Practical, hands-on-support for prequalification success

    Contractor Management- Effective contractor safety management systems to support compliance and real-world operations

    where it falls short, helping you prioritise effort, strengthen controls,
    and avoid costly compliance surprises.

    including:

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

    Outcomes include:

    • Increased employee confidence, accountability, and engagement

    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.
