About WLSS

A proudly South Australian owned and operated company, Work Life Safety Systems (WLSS) was founded in 2014 on a simple principle: businesses deserve a consolidated approach to workplace health and safety.

We Make Safety Work

We recognised a gap in the market for comprehensive access to information, advice, and assistance on workplace safety. Hence our mission ever since has been to provide encompassing WHS / OHS and quality management services that help companies to thrive beyond compliance.

With a team of highly trained, licenced, and certified WHS / OHS professionals, we passionately deliver tailored services that simplify adherence to complex regulations. We are committed to providing clients in Adelaide and across Australia exceptional support, from understanding their unique requirements to implementing practical solutions. Our brand promise is to provide high-quality professional Advisory Services to help businesses effectively simplify their management systems and streamline safety compliance. At WLSS, we make safety work.

Our collaborative approach helps clients adopt sustainable solutions, reduce waste, lower carbon footprint, and promote long-term ecological balance.

We’re devoted to energising the local South Australian economy and fostering community growth.

Hear From Our Clients

The whole process we’ve gone through is very informative and opened our eyes to everything we needed. WLSS did a great job in creating our Systems, and just the ongoing support that they provide is really worthwhile.

Ben Sachse

We had a near-miss on a worksite, so we’ve discovered that it’s not just about working safe; it’s that you can prove that you work safe. WLSS created systems for us that include procedures and toolbox meetings. It was a really easy process. Tristan tailored the Systems to suit us.
