Risk assessments we conduct

Manual handling

Our safety experts thoroughly assess your employees' tasks, supporting your health and safety reviews. We identify hazardous lifting, carrying, and movement practices that could lead to injuries, often highlighted during WHS reviews.

Working with your team, we develop ergonomic solutions and training programmes promoting safe manual handling techniques. The goal is keeping your team injury-free whilst enhancing wellbeing and productivity, confirmed through follow-up reviews.

Working at heights

Our working at heights risk assessments focus on ensuring employee safety at elevated levels, a critical component of WHS management. We evaluate existing safety measures, including fall prevention systems and harnesses, through detailed inspections and recommend improvements to enhance your safety framework.

Through detailed planning, training, and tailored safety solutions supported by safety reviews, we help prevent falls and empower your team with effective procedures. Partnering with Action OHS Consulting builds confidence that your team has the right tools, procedures, and knowledge to work safely at heights.

Confined spaces

Confined spaces present unique risks requiring specialised planning and procedures, supported by WHS reviews. We offer detailed risk assessment services for confined spaces, helping identify hazards like poor ventilation, toxic gases, or limited access.

We work with you to develop safe work procedures, provide emergency response training, and support proper equipment use to protect employees in these challenging environments, strengthening your WHS framework and improving safety outcomes.

Plant and equipment

We offer plant and equipment risk assessments and safety reviews to evaluate potential hazards associated with workplace machinery and tools. We conduct thorough inspections, assess operational procedures, and provide guidance for safe equipment maintenance and operation—core aspects of health and safety management.

Our experts collaborate with your organisation to design risk management plans and support implementation of corrective actions identified during WHS reviews, helping you align with safety standards and reduce accidents from faulty equipment or unsafe practices.

Working collaboratively with your organisation, our professionals provide tailored work health and safety support, including action plans and procedures addressing these issues. We help foster supportive work cultures promoting wellbeing, reducing absenteeism, and improving productivity.

Psychosocial Risks
