Workplace Health and Safety in Home Building
Understanding Workplace Health and Safety in Home Building
We often talk about Quality Assurance in our blogs and how it guides and drives us to deliver a better building outcome for our clients and valued business partners. Quality Assurance is a key measure of our building success and starts with the close partnership we form with our clients, and ends with a modern eco-friendly and energy efficient home. QA is the cornerstone of every Highfields Builder construction project, without exception!
However, QA doesn’t happen unless we have a clear focus on delivering a safe workplace and building site for our employees, contractors, suppliers, and customers. QA and Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) in many respects go hand in hand.
Safety for our clients and staff comes from well planned and organised systems to manage all steps in the construction process. Quality control inspections with safety protocols and checks are embedded in the business, and are completed at each stage of the project to ensure consistency in building standards, and exceptional safety from site preparation to hand over.
Having a clear focus on Health and Safety is a surefire way of making the building process safer and a lot more enjoyable for everyone. So, what are some of the strategies Highfields Builder Pty Ltd uses to ensure a safe building site.
- WHS plans are developed for each building project focusing on minimum safety requirements and any specific strategies applicable to a construction site or location.
- Safe construction outcomes flow from well planned and organised systems, WHS and quality control checklists, and consistency in building standards from site preparation to completion.
- Investing in modern, robust commercial grade equipment and tools.
- Insisting all contractors and suppliers abide by the Highfields Builder safety standards and practices when on site.
- Regular tool and equipment inspections to ensure safety standards and maintenance outcomes are maintained.
- WHS training and mentoring for all employees to ensure it remains an embedded and accepted business practice.
