WHS Consultant Mackay – Safety Compliance for Regional & Industrial Projects

Workplace Health and Safety Audits
 

Our WHS audits and site inspections identify hazards, compliance gaps, and operational risks across construction, mining, and civil environments. Regular audits are critical to maintaining legal compliance under WHS legislation and protecting your workforce from preventable incidents. We conduct comprehensive audits using a risk-based methodology and provide actionable recommendations to close compliance gaps.

Emergency Response Planning
 

Our Emergency Management Plans prepare your workforce for potential emergencies, from fire evacuations to chemical spills and severe weather events. A robust EMP is vital to minimise harm, protect assets, and satisfy regulatory requirements. Stay Safe Enterprises creates EMPs based on real risk analysis, ensuring your workers have clear, effective action plans during emergencies.

Ergonomic Assessments
 

Poor ergonomics lead to musculoskeletal injuries, absenteeism, and lost productivity. Ergonomic risks must be identified and controlled early, particularly in construction, office, and mining environments. We conduct ergonomic assessments, workstation evaluations, manual handling reviews, and recommend engineering or administrative controls to reduce physical strain.

Safety Equipment and PPE Consulting
 

Selecting the correct Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and safety gear is critical for controlling hazards effectively. Poor PPE selection exposes workers to unnecessary risks. Stay Safe Enterprises advises businesses on fit-for-purpose PPE, respiratory protection programs (including silica dust), and correct equipment maintenance practices.

Hazardous Materials Management
 

Handling hazardous substances incorrectly can lead to serious health, environmental, and legal consequences. Compliance with hazardous materials storage, transport, and disposal laws is critical. We develop HAZMAT management plans, train workers in safe handling procedures, and provide site compliance audits for hazardous chemical use.

Legal Compliance Training
 

Essential safety documents — including policies, procedures, training records, and incident reports — form the backbone of a compliant workplace. Poor documentation is a leading cause of legal penalties during audits. Stay Safe Enterprises provides comprehensive documentation packs designed to meet regulator standards and simplify onsite management.

Online Health and Safety Training
 

Online health and safety training makes WHS compliance accessible, flexible, and scalable for modern businesses. It’s vital for keeping remote, FIFO, and subcontractor workers trained without site downtime. We offer comprehensive online training modules designed for construction, mining, and civil industry requirements across Queensland.

Risk Assessments and Management
 

A Site-Specific WHSMP outlines the unique risks and safety controls for your construction or mining project. Without one, projects risk legal breaches and increased incident rates. We develop WHSMPs that comply with Queensland legislation, integrate critical controls, and align with project-specific client and principal contractor requirements.

​

Risk assessments identify potential hazards, assess their consequences, and establish effective controls to mitigate them. Proper risk assessments reduce the likelihood of workplace incidents and support defensible legal compliance. We create clear, easy-to-use risk matrices and hazard control plans aligned with ISO 45001 and WHS Act requirements.

WHS Compliance Consulting
 

We provide expert WHS consulting services tailored to meet Queensland and Australian compliance requirements. Whether it's project-specific advice or full safety management plans, our goal is to simplify complex WHS laws for your operations. Stay Safe Enterprises delivers practical, cost-effective WHS solutions, ensuring your workplace is both safe and audit-ready.

Construction Safety Management
 

Construction sites are some of the highest-risk work environments in Australia. Without proactive safety management, project delays, injuries, and regulator shutdowns are inevitable. We implement end-to-end construction safety management systems, including site safety plans, critical control verifications, and subcontractor compliance oversight.

​

Workplace Well-being Programs
 

Worker health, morale, and mental resilience directly impact safety outcomes and productivity. Well-being programs reduce absenteeism, improve retention, and lower incident rates. We design workplace well-being initiatives, including mental health awareness training, resilience workshops, and health promotion campaigns tailored to construction and mining sectors.

Fire Safety Consulting
 

Fire risks can devastate operations if poorly managed. Fire safety consulting ensures your site’s fire prevention, detection, and response strategies meet legislative and insurance requirements. Stay Safe Enterprises conducts fire risk assessments, evacuation planning, fire extinguisher placement reviews, and compliance audits tailored to your site’s hazards.

Contractor Safety Management
 

Managing subcontractor WHS compliance is a legal requirement for principal contractors. Poor contractor management exposes companies to fines and insurance risks. We design contractor onboarding systems, WHS evaluation templates, and ongoing compliance management frameworks to ensure your contractors meet your safety standards.

First Aid Training
 

Effective first aid response saves lives and reduces the severity of workplace injuries. First aid training is a legal requirement for all businesses under WHS laws. Stay Safe Enterprises offers certified first aid training tailored to your industry needs, ensuring your workforce is prepared to respond during emergencies.

Safety Training and Inductions
 

Comprehensive safety training and effective worker inductions are critical for creating a compliant, safe, and informed workforce. Poor or missing inductions are a leading cause of WHS breaches. Stay Safe Enterprises delivers custom safety training packages, contractor onboarding programs, and induction systems aligned with project-specific hazards and legislative requirements.

Incident Investigation and Reporting
 

Conducting thorough investigations and reporting of workplace incidents in line with Queensland safety standards. When incidents occur, thorough root cause investigations are essential to prevent recurrence and protect legal liability. We specialise in ICAM (Incident Cause Analysis Method) investigations that go beyond blame to uncover systemic issues. Stay Safe Enterprises delivers detailed, regulator-ready ICAM reports with clear corrective action plans.

Health and Safety Policy Development
 

A WHSMS provides the full framework for safe business operations, including policies, procedures, and performance review processes. It’s essential for companies bidding on large tenders or managing high-risk activities. We develop or upgrade WHSMS documents tailored to your operation, ensuring certification readiness and practical application on the ground.

Safety Culture Development
 

A strong safety culture is the foundation of a consistently safe, compliant, and high-performing workplace. Without a positive safety culture, even the best systems and procedures can fail. Stay Safe Enterprises partners with businesses to develop sustainable safety cultures through leadership coaching, workforce engagement strategies, behavioural safety programs, and targeted communication campaigns — ensuring safety becomes part of daily operations, not just paperwork.

Occupational Hygiene Services
 

Occupational hygiene focuses on controlling airborne contaminants, chemical exposure, noise, and ergonomic risks in workplaces. Failure to manage these can result in chronic worker illnesses and regulatory breaches. Stay Safe Enterprises provides monitoring, risk assessments, and control strategy development aligned with national exposure standards.

Workplace Safety Inspections
 

Our WHS audits and safety inspections identify workplace hazards, legislative breaches, and operational risks. Regular audits are essential for ensuring compliance, protecting workers, and satisfying principal contractor and government requirements. We deliver thorough audits with practical, actionable reports and support you through rectifying non-compliance findings.
