What We Do ...
Apex Site Safety Audits is a specialised provider of workplace health and safety (WHS) consulting services, with a primary focus on the construction industry and other high-risk workplaces across Queensland and Australia. Our structured, practical approach enables principal contractors, builders, project managers, and subcontractors to manage complex safety challenges efficiently and cost-effectively, ensuring compliance with the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (Qld), the Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011 (Qld), and relevant Codes of Practice.
The construction sector presents unique and significant hazards, including working at heights, mobile plant and machinery operations, excavation and trenching, electrical installations, confined spaces, demolition activities, and risks associated with high-risk construction work as defined under Regulation 291. We deliver targeted solutions that address these realities, helping clients maintain safe sites, reduce incident rates, and demonstrate due diligence to regulators such as Workplace Health and Safety Queensland (WHSQ).
Over the years, we have assisted numerous small to medium-sized construction businesses in developing and implementing effective safety programs, procedures, and plans. Our services encompass a comprehensive range of construction-specific needs, including:
