Safety audits and workplace inspections delivered by senior practitioners — not junior auditors with a checklist. We surface the findings that actually move your risk profile, and we rank them so you know what to fix first.
An audit is only valuable if it changes behaviour. Too many safety audits in WA produce 80-page PDFs that document compliance theatre — pages of evidence that policies exist, with no real verification that controls work in the field. We do the opposite. We audit what matters, document what we find clearly, and rank corrective actions so your team can act on them this quarter.
We are deliberately versatile. Different audits serve different purposes, and we scope each engagement around the outcome you actually need.
Independent audits against the ISO 45001:2018 framework, the WA Work Health and Safety Act 2020, the WHS (Mines) Regulations 2022 and any client-specific requirements layered on top. We sample evidence across leadership, planning, operation, performance evaluation and improvement — and we tell you where the gaps will hurt you.
Targeted audits against specific regulatory obligations: hazardous chemicals, high-risk work licensing, plant and machinery registration, electrical safety, working at heights, confined space entry, asbestos management. Useful for businesses preparing for a DMIRS or WorkSafe WA visit, or recovering from a notice.
For principal contractors and Tier 1 operators who need confidence that their contractors are not introducing unmanaged risk. We audit contractor SMS, training records, plant maintenance regimes, supervision arrangements and incident histories.
For mid-sized and large operators wanting a documented, recurring internal audit program — one we deliver, train your team to deliver, or both. We design the cycle around your operational rhythm (shutdown, season, project phase) so the audits land when they are useful, not when they are inconvenient.
Walk-around inspections of operational worksites: production lines, mine pads, civil construction, processing facilities, warehouses, workshops. Output is a photo-documented report of unsafe acts and unsafe conditions, with recommended controls.
For projects approaching first production, mobilisation or commissioning. We verify that systems, training, emergency arrangements and supervision are actually ready for go-live — not just documented as ready.
We sample for the truth, not for the file. Our auditors are trained interviewers — Jeremy spent a decade in police investigation work — and we use witness interview discipline to verify whether documented controls are actually understood and used by frontline workers.
We rank findings. Every finding is categorised by risk and ease-of-remediation so your management team can sequence actions intelligently. A finding that exposes you to a Prohibition Notice ranks differently from a finding that affects audit-trail neatness.
We separate symptoms from causes. If your toolbox talks are inconsistent, the issue is rarely the toolbox talk template. It is usually leadership, supervision span, or competing operational pressures. We name root causes so you can fix the right thing.
We are not a sales funnel. Some consultancies use audits to manufacture follow-on work. We are honest about what you can fix internally versus where external help genuinely adds value.
Every audit closes with a written report, a verbal close-out, and a prioritised action plan. We can also deliver an executive summary suitable for board reporting, and an open findings register that integrates with your internal action-tracking system.

Yes. We routinely audit mine sites and remote operations across the Pilbara, Goldfields, Mid West and Kimberley. We are FIFO/DIDO ready, mine-inducted, and carry our own PPE. We coordinate with your travel and accommodation desk to minimise disruption.
We are not a certifying body, so our audits are not equivalent to a third-party certification audit by JAS-ANZ accredited certifiers. However, our gap analysis and pre-certification audits are specifically designed to make your certification audit go smoothly — we identify and help you close gaps before the certifier arrives.
Yes. Contractor verification audits are one of our most-requested services. We can run a one-off audit on a key contractor, or run an ongoing program covering your whole panel.
Yes. All HSES engagements are bound by a written confidentiality agreement. Audit findings are released only to nominated client representatives unless you direct otherwise.
Strategic and operational WHS support — from one-off advice through to retained advisory arrangements for SMEs and project-based operations.
Tailored SMS development and uplift. Risk registers, safe work procedures, contractor management — built to integrate with your operations.
Lead Investigator capability for high-potential, serious and notifiable incidents. Independent investigations and ICAM training rooted in 27 years of policing experience.
Whether it's a fresh tender, an audit deadline, a notifiable incident or a long-overdue SMS uplift — we'll respond fast and quote fixed.
