Many businesses aren’t sure whether their existing guards, interlocks, or procedures meet current AS/NZS 4024 or WorkSafe NZ requirements – they just sense something isn’t right or that compliance is outdated.

Many clients are unclear which standards apply – AS/NZS 4024, ISO 12100, or HSWA 2015. We provide clarity and translate those requirements into practical, actionable steps. In many cases, there are also machine-specific standards that allow a more tailored and practicable safety solution.

Yes – we offer desktop reviews and pre-purchase inspections for new or used machinery before you commit to buying or installing it.
These reviews assess compliance with AS/NZS 4024, ISO 12100, and WorkSafe NZ guidance, identifying potential risks, non-compliant features, or costly design issues early.
This helps you make informed decisions, budget accurately for modifications, and avoid purchasing equipment that can’t meet NZ safety requirements.

Clients often worry that a safety review will halt production or lead to costly redesigns. We reassure them that Safety Engineering Services focuses on practical, staged solutions that integrate with operations rather than stopping them.

A common request is for a consultant who goes beyond auditing to actually design, engineer, and verify solutions. Safety Engineering Services delivers exactly that—a complete end-to-end service covering risk assessment, system design, and validation.

Yes – collaboration is key. We work directly with your engineering, maintenance, and H&S teams to ensure all safety measures are practical, achievable, and fully integrated into your operations. We also encourage operators and front-line staff to share feedback and ideas on any changes – they work on the coalface every day and often see risks and improvements others might miss.
