Safety
Highest of standards.
SAFETY FIRST AT ALL LEVELS
All WorkCon employees are educated on safety in the workplace. They are provided and consulted on safe work method statements and updated on the latest workplace health and safety policies and guidelines.
Our people are expected to observe the highest possible standards for health and safety, and conduct themselves in a manner that takes into account both their own safety and the safety of everyone around them.
We also cater to specific company or role requirements, such as organising medicals, screening sessions or other pre-commencement safety tasks.
WorkCon has in place a Safety and Quality Assurance Management System, which complies to AS/NZS 4801 and ISO 9001:2008.
