It is becoming widely recognised that in most cases, simpler health and safety management systems are better systems. We can all spend a lot of time, effort and cost developing systems which we think we may need but are overly complex, cumbersome, and ineffective. 

 

• We can work with you to develop a Health and Safety Management System suitable for your business requirements, using our key principles

​

1.  suitable for your business 

​

2.  simple to implement and easy to use 

​

3.  improving health and safety in your workplace

​

Planning for health and safety on projects and in workplaces is one of the most significant opportunities we have to ensure people’s safety and wellbeing.

 

• We will work with you early to ensure that health and safety is being considered while providing a work environment which allows it to run efficiently​

 

• We can provide the platform to identify the potential health and safety risks involved in the work and help to come up with practical and cost-effective solutions

In New Zealand, we have a buoyant and progressive construction industry providing our communities with new and improved infrastructure. There is a large number of contractors servicing this market to satisfy the demand. However, not every contractor has the same level of health and safety capability and at times, this can present challenges to both a client and a contractor. 

 

onFocus can support you in these situations.

​

• We can complete an evaluation of the expectations of the client and the capabilities of the contractor to understand what is needed to align both parties

​

• We can then offer simple and cost-effective solutions to bridge the gap

​​

• We can also provide contractor representation support, as and when required

We are constantly assessing risk to ensure that we avoid harm throughout any given day. This flows through our home life, into our workplaces and our social settings.  In most circumstances, we do this well and without conscious thought. However, there are situations where we need to fully understand the risks in a purposeful way.

 

At onFocus we understand the hazards and risks a workplace can present and we see the management of these risks as one of the most critical and important functions we can undertake to prevent harm

​

• We can provide guidance and support to identify, assess and manage these risks to an acceptable level

We would all agree that injury prevention is our best chance of ensuring our people go home healthy and safe every day, but unfortunately, this is not always the case.  When incidents do occur and someone is injured or their health is affected, we need to ensure we can learn from what has happened.  onFocus can guide you through the investigation process

​

• We can provide advice on the appropriate level of investigation required to understand what led to the incident and to identify prevention

​

• We offer a full investigation completed by a suitably trained ICAM health and safety professional

​

• We can provide assistance in your dealings with the Regulator

Businesses can often be expected to operate at many different levels dependent on the type of
operation, complexity of the work and external demands. The one common factor in all businesses is that they involve people.  We can assist you in the following ways.

​

• By analysing the performance of your systems, whether you are meeting your legal obligations and how health and safety is perceived by your workers. 

​

• We may be able offer focused assessments to suit your requirements. If you require something specific talk to us.
