- Our APP is home to a customisable suite of policy and procedures and is our tool for managing health and safety information.

Is H&S compliance needed for my business – it is only small? In H&S size does not matter. Like paying GST, you need to comply with relevant legislative requirements applicable to your business. The trick is how to ensure safety and compliance and minimise whilst making it easy to reduce the impact on your business.
How much does a safety consultant cost NZ? It depends on the work being done and the seniority. The latest survey put the average hourly charge out rate for a senior consultant at $175 per hour. We work on $1200 per day. Our partnership arrangement is much more cost-effective option for most clients – pay an annual fee (in quarterly installments) and get a defined package of services which cover all you will need.
What does a health and safety consultant do in NZ? Most standard health and safety procedures are easy to access yourself. What a health and safety consultant adds is expert knowledge on which processes you need for your circumstances. They should be the expert on all compliance requirements and have the expertise to avoid you the cost of getting it wrong.
