2 How we help: step by step safety & compliance Everybody wants to prevent fatal falls but getting height safety right is anything but straightforward. The intricacies of compliance with height safety codes, standards and regulations leave most organisations wondering just what needs to be done. Workplace Access & Safety s role is to make it all manageable and keep your people safe. Our practical, commercial solutions take away the worry, frustration and risk associated with working at heights. We ll make your sites and systems safe and compliant, step by step. Who we are: the height safety specialists Workplace Access & Safety was established in 1997 to help workplaces meet their obligations under working at heights legislation. We were appalled to find that while falls injuries remained one of the top causes of workplace fatalities, so many workplaces were being sold unsuitable equipment. Expensive equipment that required special skills to use, that often introduced new risks, demanded extra administration and didn t necessarily comply with the OHS legislation. Instead, our solutions match the people, the infrastructure and the applications of each site. This holistic approach genuinely reduces risk and complies with legislation. Offering a unique blend of both theoretical and practical experience, Workplace Access & Safety has established itself throughout Australia as the leading authority in the provision of OHS risk management and compliance support for working at heights.
