Work Health & Safety and Risk Consulting Services, Inspections and Audits
In addition to our extensive training services MD-SAFETY also provides management consulting services to help organisations ensure compliance to Work Health & Safety Legislation and internal auditing requirements.
The WH&S audit process provides systematic criteria to determine safety priorities and allocate resources in a way that best suits an organisation's needs.
Audit criteria are based on the belief that health and safety management should be included in the way that every organisation conducts its day to day activities and therefore, should be fully integrated into all management functions, including Human Resources, Finance and Environmental Management.
Audit Criteria:
Specific Australian State Work Health & Safety Legislation (e.g. NSW OHS Act 2000 & Regulations 2001)
Australian Standards
AS/NZS 4801-4804:2001 Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems
ISO 31000:2009 Risk Management
ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management Systems
Risk Management Programs
"Organisations that manage risk effectively and efficiently are more likely to achieve their objectives and do so at a lower overall cost." – So states AS/NZS ISO 31000:2009 - Risk Management. This is especially true of organisations that have a systematic approach to hazard management.
