EHS Compliance Auditing Capabilities
EHS compliance audits ensure your business meets legal and regulatory requirements while maintaining a safe and sustainable workplace.
Our health and safety consultants conduct workplace safety audits across high-risk industrial sites and low-risk environments such as offices and high-tech facilities.
We review your EHS management systems against all applicable laws, identifying gaps and opportunities to strengthen your environmental health and safety compliance.
An external EHS audit adds value even if you have an in-house team, helping you protect your workers, avoid fines, and demonstrate your commitment to safety and the environment to clients, investors and regulators.
Contact us today to discuss how a tailored EHS compliance audit can support your business.
ISO Compliance and Legal Register Services
ISO 14001 or ISO 45001 certification alone does not guarantee EHS legal compliance.
We support your organisation in achieving and maintaining ISO compliance by ensuring your legal obligations are fully met and up to date.
Our team has developed extensive EHS legal registers across all industry sectors in Australia and New Zealand, tailored to your specific operations and risk profile.
We provide practical guidance on how to meet these legal requirements and can update your legal register regularly as legislation changes.
