Respirator Fit Testing
If you use any type of Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE), it’s important to ensure a proper fit and seal to minimise the risks from breathing in substances hazardous to your health such as dust, gases, vapours, or particles, that may be present in the work environment.
This test includes a quick training session on how to use, store, and clean your respirator effectively. Public sessions and onsite sessions available on request.
HSWA Compliant Site Plans
Designed specifically for the purpose of Location Compliance Certification, these documents show the locations of dangerous goods within the site, and detail the necessary flammable vapours that are present.
Site Plans are documented in accordance with the requirements of a Compliance Certifier in reference to AS/NZS 60079.10.1:2009, Health and Safety at Work (Hazardous Substances) Regulations 2017.

Traffic Management &
Emergency Evacuation Plans
Contrary to what you might think, both these plans are separate documents.
Traffic Management Plans are designed to ensure the smooth flow of vehicle and pedestrian movements onsite, effectively managing traffic risks and minimising vehicle-related accidents. These plans clearly define the roles and responsibilities of traffic managers and drivers, as well as daily and emergency traffic control procedures.
Emergency Evacuation Plans provide clear guidance to ensure everyone on site knows where to go in the event of an emergency. These plans include detailed directions to assembly points, alternate routes, and the locations of fire safety equipment, dangerous goods, fire hydrants, and assembly areas.

We evaluate the quality, quantity, and functionality of each item. Recommendations for replacements or upgrades will be provided where necessary.
