What we can help with
Workplace Inspections
Regular workplace inspections are the foundation of a safe and compliant work environment. They help identify hazards before they become incidents, ensure workers are following safe systems of work, and provide management with a clear understanding of the site’s current WHS performance.
At Skills On Safety, we conduct on-site workplace inspections tailored to your operations. Whether it’s a manufacturing plant, construction site, or office environment, we assess everything from housekeeping and signage to worker behaviour and plant condition. We’ll provide a clear, actionable report that highlights areas of non-compliance and practical recommendations for improvement.ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.
OHS /WHS Audits
OHS/WHS audits are a key part of maintaining compliance with legislation and ensuring your business is meeting its legal duties under state and federal safety laws. An audit provides a snapshot of how your systems are performing and identifies gaps before they result in costly incidents or regulatory penalties.
Our qualified auditors review your current systems, documentation, and workplace practices against the relevant standards and codes of practice. You’ll receive a comprehensive audit report with prioritised recommendations, helping you strengthen your safety management system and demonstrate compliance to clients, contractors, and government bodies.
Plant and Equipment Safety Assessment
Plant and equipment present some of the highest risks in the workplace — from moving machinery to powered tools and mobile plant. Regular assessments ensure that every item of plant is fit for use, properly maintained, and operated safely by competent personnel.
SOS provides detailed plant and equipment safety assessments that include condition reports, guarding checks, maintenance record reviews, and operator competency verification. We’ll help you meet your obligations under WHS Regulations and ensure that your workers are operating in a safe environment.
Safety Management Plans
A well-written Safety Management Plan (SMP) is the backbone of a compliant and efficient operation. It clearly sets out your company’s approach to managing health and safety risks, defining responsibilities, processes, and control measures.
Our team develops custom Safety Management Plans that align with your business size, scope, and regulatory requirements. Whether you need a plan for a single project, a tender submission, or company-wide operations, we’ll ensure it’s practical, compliant, and easy to implement.
Risk Assessments
Understanding your risks is the first step toward effective safety management. A thorough risk assessment identifies potential hazards, evaluates their likelihood and consequence, and helps you apply the right controls to protect people, property, and productivity.
Skills On Safety works closely with your team to develop clear, site-specific risk assessments that are simple to follow and compliant with WHS standards. We break down the process into manageable steps so your workers can understand the risks associated with their tasks and take ownership of safe work practices.
Verification of Competencies VOC’s
Verification of Competency ensures that workers not only hold the right licences and qualifications but also remain capable and confident to perform their tasks safely. It’s an essential step in maintaining workplace compliance and productivity.
SOS provides practical VOC assessments across a wide range of high-risk work areas including construction, mining, manufacturing, and logistics. Our assessors observe workers in real-world tasks and provide feedback and certification to verify ongoing competence.
