See How WLSS Makes a Difference
“We had a near-miss on a worksite, and during the process of going through it with SafeWork SA, it’s not just about working safe; it’s that you can prove that you work safe. So we engaged WLSS to create a system for us to include procedures, toolbox meetings, and keeping signed copies of everything. It was a really easy process. Tristan tailored the systems to suit us.”
