About · Safety & quality

Safety and quality systems

Remedial work concentrates high-risk activity: work at height, structural break-out, crystalline silica exposure, occupied buildings and public interface. The systems below govern how that work is planned, executed and recorded.

SQ-01

Safe work method statements

A maintained library of safe work method statements covering high-risk construction work: work at height, demolition and break-out, hazardous dust, plant operation and public interface. Each is reviewed and adapted for the specific project rather than reissued unchanged.

SQ-02

Inspection & test plans

Each scope carries an inspection and test plan with defined hold and witness points covering substrate preparation, reinforcement treatment and membrane detailing. Records are photographed and compiled into the completion report.

SQ-03

Public & occupant protection

Exclusion zones, overhead protection, protected access paths and resident notification protocols for occupied buildings. These are planned within the methodology, priced within the scope and auditable on site.

SQ-04

Crystalline silica

Cutting, grinding or drilling concrete is a crystalline silica process under Part 4.5 of the Victorian OHS Regulations 2017. Where the work is high risk crystalline silica work, a written hazard control statement is prepared before work commences. Controls include on-tool extraction, dust suppression and respiratory protection, with air monitoring where exposure against the 0.05 mg/m³ standard is uncertain and health monitoring where warranted.

SQ-05

Hazardous materials

Buildings of asbestos-era construction are surveyed before any disturbance and the asbestos register is consulted before break-out is planned. Lead-based paint is assessed on pre-1970s facade work and managed accordingly.

SQ-06

Work at height systems

Engineered access per elevation. Fall prevention is managed under Part 3.3 of the Victorian OHS Regulations 2017 and WorkSafe Victoria's compliance code for preventing falls in general construction. Rope access follows IRATA systems and AS/NZS ISO 22846.1 and .2:2020. Elevated work platforms and scaffold are used with certified inspections, and anchor certification records are maintained.

SQ-07

Quality management

Documented quality assurance procedures aligned to ISO 9001 practice. Formal certification status is published on our accreditations page.

Safety documentation summaries and certificates are provided at contract and are available to clients on request at any time.

Documentation available before contract

Sample safe work method statements, certificates of currency and quality procedures are available to any client evaluating our suitability for a project.
