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.”

Chris Edgar, Red Dog Building & Renovation

Rather than offering a general or issue-specific risk assessment, WLSS provides a detailed, personalised analysis of your entire workplace and operations. We go beyond basic identification to offer actionable strategies and in-depth evaluations tailored to your unique business environment, ensuring effective risk management and support for your growth.

The process typically involves identifying hazards, assessing the risks associated with those hazards, implementing control measures, and reviewing the effectiveness of those measures.

Risk assessments should be conducted whenever there are significant changes in the workplace, such as new processes, equipment, facilities, or regulations. It is recommended that completed risk assessments and your broader risk management approach are reviewed annually to ensure they remain relevant to your business and that the control measures are working as planned.

The risk assessment includes identified hazards, an assessment of the level of risk associated with those hazards, recommendations for control measures, and a plan for implementing and monitoring those control measures. This approach ensures health and safety by actively managing risks and using practical risk assessment tools to support continuous improvement.

Our team will provide a clear action plan and guidance on implementing the recommendations. We can also assist with training and follow-up assessments to ensure successful implementation.

WLSS adheres to strict confidentiality protocols to ensure that any sensitive information shared during the assessment is protected and only used for its intended purpose.

WLSS offers ongoing support for implementing recommendations, training staff, and reviewing the effectiveness of the measures.
