- Harmonised WHS Act and Regulations; AS/NZS ISO 19011:2019
Key result: 2 civil construction sites audited, 0 legal breaches found
The challenge
The developer needed to know whether its civil contractor’s project management plan met the developer’s WHS requirements, and whether the sites were compliant in practice.
What we did
Desktop gap analysis comparing the developer’s WHS requirements with the contractor’s project management plan
On-site WHS Act and Regulations audits of civil construction operations at two developments
Audits run to AS/NZS ISO 19011:2019, covering legal compliance and how well WHS processes worked in practice
Reports with findings and recommendations for each site
The result
- 0 explicit and 0 implicit legal breaches at either site
- Both sites assessed as well managed, with controls going beyond legal requirements
- One significant fall hazard found at each site (an open excavation and an exposed retaining-wall edge), reported for immediate action
