Health & Safety
Audits and Reviews

Our methodology and meticulous approach ensures that your safety processes are evaluated comprehensively, allowing you to reflect on the effectiveness of “safety as done” versus “safety as imagined”. Continual improvement is at the core of our strategy, and our audits showcase what works effectively—providing valuable insights to help you manage foreseeable workplace hazards and risks.

We use internationally certified Exemplar Global Auditors to establish an OHS / WHS audit framework and schedule that meets our clients’ objectives. This typically Includes:

• Health & safety audit planning.

• The defining of audit objectives, scope, and criteria.

• Conducting on-site audit activities.

• Identifying the auditee’s strengths, opportunities for development and continued improvement.

• OHS / WHS audit report development.

• OHS / WHS report delivery and presentation.

We audit against Australian national and state-based standards, industry best practices and our auditor team’s many years of experience. Here are some of the audits we commonly conduct:

• Integrated Management System (IMS) Audits (ISO 45001, 14001 and 9001)
• Major project auditing, including projects under Victoria Big Build.
• Desktop management plan auditing and subsequent Principal Contractor implementation audits.
• National OHS Self Insurance Audit Program (NAT)
• Director and Officer Due Diligence Audits (against Section 27-5, Work Health and Safety Act)
• Site-Specific OHS Audits (e.g. for strata bodies, businesses operating across multiple sites/locations/projects, etc.)
• Internal Audit Programs
• Health Checks
• Discovery Audits

It’s important for businesses, regardless of their size, to establish an OHS / WHS audit schedule. This ensures a comprehensive understanding of how safety is implemented in their operations.

We recommend:

• Establishing an annual OHS/WHS audit
• Conducting a comprehensive safety audit every 3 years

By doing so, you’ll meet and exceed the OHS Audit requirements of ISO 45001 and ISO 45003. Further, you will be able to demonstrate a proactive approach to the identification, management and review of your key risks.
