We recognise that every company is different in size, location, dynamics and industry focus

You’ve invested time and resources into developing your OHS / WHS culture, but how do you measure it

policy, procedure, OHS,WHS, culture, real, safety, emphasis, framework, backbone, documents, value

Policies & Procedures form the backbone of your organisation’s OHS / WHS culture, covering all aspects of your logistics & operations, representing the framework for compliance and understanding for all of your stakeholders, suppliers and workers.

We work with you and your team to ensure your health and safety policies and procedures are ‘real’ and manageable, and that what is written on paper is a true reflection of your company’s values and direction.

We help you develop comprehensive health and safety documents that communicate the importance of a proactive focus and an emphasis on safety in your organisation; and we will work with you ensure this is translated into effective action.

Let us use our extensive knowledge of compliance to legislation & industry best-practice to review and recommend how these systems may conform or confirm that you are on the right track.

Gap Analysis will quickly identify any areas for improvement, or those ares which need to be included in your current OHS / WHS systems.

Whether you already have existing policies and procedures in place and would like a second opinion, or need to update to current legislation, we are able to assist you and your team through our Gap Analysis process.

We review, investigate and assess your company based on:

Policies / Procedures
Work instructions, training records
Consultation evidence
Observations of site
Photographic evidence of hazards
Consultation with staff

We will then provide you with a written and photographic report (where applicable) and subsequent guidance of those aspects that need to be addressed immediately and through gradual implementation.

As Event Professionals you would be at great pains to ensure your operations are compliant when onsite, but are you as compliant with your places of work, offices & warehouses?

Beaspoke Safety offers safety audits for your base of operations and delivers policy & procedural solutions tailored to satisfy your changing needs.

Beaspoke Safety will assist you to take the necessary actions and for what may otherwise be extremely costly issues further down the track.

Beaspoke Safety has extensive knowledge of the requirements of OHS / WHS legislation throughout Australia. We recognise that those involved in events often need common sense advice to protect them from the possibilities of litigation.

Management system for identifying hazards and significant risks
Up to date information for Risk Assessments in accordance with new legislation

Developing a Contractor Management System

Beaspoke Safety has extensive knowledge of the safety legislation requirements throughout Australia

A site-specific risk assessment must be prepared before work is commenced

It is vital to engage fully with your contractors to ensure that health and safety is properly managed. Beaspoke Safety can develop a contractor management system that ensures you able to track and identify what documentation is outstanding and allow you to identify who is proficient in safety and an excellent alliance with you.

Drawing upon our personal experience as event contractors, we apply our skills to develop a contractor management system that is both realistic in scope and also satisfies the specific needs of your organisational requirements for retaining and managing contractors and their sub-contractors.

In addition, given the risks associated with events, it makes good business sense to maintain and operate under appropriate systems to minimise the risk of breaching legislative, community and commercial obligations.

A site-specific risk assessment must be prepared before work is commenced

SWMS, JSA, Worksafe, site specific, high risk, works, insurance, incident, site specific,

Whether it be a general JSA (Job Safety Analysis) risk assessment prepared to detail general tasks or a SWMS (Safe Work Method Statement) that is required to go into finer detail to encompass “High-Risk” works, it is a legal requirement under OHS / WHS law that a site-specific risk assessment be prepared prior to work commencing.

As this is the first document that a regulatory body such as WorkSafe, a lawyer or an insurance assessor is likely to review in the event of an incident, ‘site-specific’ means prepared exclusively for that job, not rehashed from a previous risk assessment.

We will work with you and your team to identify the ‘high risk’ works and develop the appropriate statement in conjunction with those involved in the high risk work.

NB. A Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) is similar to a Job Safety Analysis (JSA). You may continue to use existing JSA formats providing you contain all the information required of an SWMS.
