A workplace health and safety management system is a set of policies, procedures, and plans put in place to minimise the risk of employee injury and illness from workplace operations. Your people, the nature of the work they carry out, and OHS legislation change rapidly, so it’s important to regularly check for any gaps in your management system.

Our safety consultants conduct audits and gap analysis to ensure your business is complying with current WHS/OHS legislation and providing a safe work environment. Our OHS audits can be tailored to suit your workplace – whether you’re looking for a simple fine tune of your safety compliance via an online appointment, or a fully comprehensive on-site review to check for any gaps in the management of your workplace health and safety.

Through on-site reviews, our safety consultants can assess the specific OHS needs of a business and provide a report on the support required.

Our Safety Audits and Gap Analysis benefit workplaces by:

• Ensuring gaps in OHS compliance are not overlooked, reducing risks to employees and the likelihood of prosecution and fines.
• Making sure your safety management system is evolving and continually improving using feedback.
• Integrating reports with other management systems.
• Providing more informed decision-making, strengthening corporate culture and demonstrating due diligence.
• Providing peace of mind that your workplace complies with OHS legislation and regulations.

Our OHS consultants can provide end-to-end support to fully manage your workplace health and safety policies, procedures and plans, or simply help you to get a part of your safety program up and running.

We can integrate our services into your existing business operations to enhance your existing systems – whether you use a paper-based safety program, or a digital solution. For those wanting to move to a fully automated safety management system, our OHS consultants can also work with businesses, small and large, to onboard them with OHS Compliance Management Software.

Our focus is on ensuring legislative compliance and providing a safer working environment for employees, with expertise that benefits your business by:

• Ensuring compliance with OHS legislation and regulations.
• Managing the contents of safety documentation within the system.
• Making sure your management system is effective in protecting people from harm and minimising claims.
• Checking the system includes mechanisms to continually improve using feedback.
• Helping businesses to integrate their OHS system with other management systems.
• Developing a system that strengthens corporate culture and demonstrates due diligence.

Businesses have a primary duty to safeguard their employees against psychosocial risk. Psychosocial hazards are aspects of work and situations that may cause a stress response, which in turn can lead to psychological or physical harm. They may include such factors as role overload, poor support from managers, remote or isolated work, exposure to traumatic events or workplace violence, bullying and harassment.

Nabenet will conduct an assessment that is focused on identifying and evaluating psychological hazards and risks within the workplace, and report on the findings or areas recommended for continual improvement. Our team of OHS experts, organisational psychologists, and allied health professionals provide an integrated approach to identifying psychosocial risk and providing tailored solutions to address the source of the risk.

When organisations manage psychosocial hazards proactively:

• They can reap the benefits of employee engagement and morale, improved performance and productivity and a reduction in worker turnover.
• They’ll comply with OHS regulations and successfully navigate workplace inspections by OHS regulatory bodies (such as Safe Work Australia).
• It reassures employees that your organisation’s OHS policies and procedures have their best interests at heart.
• Claims associated with work-related mental health conditions will be reduced.
