Risk Management
At QHSE Ltd, we build and maintain practical health & safety (H&S) risk management systems for New Zealand organisations. From frontline hazard identification to residual risk reviews and dashboards, we help you spot, assess, and control risks before they injure people or disrupt operations—keeping you compliant with HSWA 2015 and genuinely safer, not just paper‑safe.
Why H&S Risk Management Matters
- Prevent injuries & incidents by identifying hazards early and putting robust controls in place
- Meet legal duties under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA) and related regulations
- Use resources wisely by prioritising the highest risks (likelihood × consequence)
- Improve culture & engagement through transparent reporting and worker involvement
- Drive continual improvement with reviews that test whether controls still work as intended
Our Approach & Methodology
- Set the Context – Define objectives, scope, and what “acceptable risk” looks like.
- Identify Hazards & H&S Risks – Workshops, site walks, task analysis and document reviews (physical, psychosocial, chemical, biological, ergonomic, operational).
- Assess & Prioritise – Apply your matrix (e.g., 5×5) plus extra dimensions (damage, reputation, financial, legal/compliance, environmental).
- Treat & Control – Eliminate where possible; otherwise substitute, isolate, engineer, administer, or provide PPE—documenting actions, owners, and due dates.
- Monitor & Review (Residual Risk) – Re‑score after controls, check effectiveness, automate reminders for periodic reviews.
- Communicate & Engage – Dashboards, toolbox talks, and management reviews keep everyone aligned and accountable.
