Safety Management is a division of the Sillcock Corporate Group Pty Ltd, a diverse investment company that owns a real estate agency, a business broker, an educational consultancy, a retail consultancy, and formerly owned an adventure tourism company. 

 

It has an ongoing contract with a strata property compliance auditing company that specialises in WHS and fire safety audits on resorts and strata properties throughout Queensland.

 

A natural progression for the company was to diversify from the risk management structures that applied to the adventure industry and current WHS and Fire Safety auditing into audits for office environments, retail space, tourism, and educational centres (schools, childcare, adult colleges and universities).

 

As external auditors, Safety Management casts fresh eyes over an organisation’s work environment, with experience gained from multiple sites and industries. They will provide feedback on issues that may need to be addressed or monitored.

 

Safety Management is not a regulator and does not report any issues to regulators. They will highlight any issues that require immediate attention and those that may need to be recorded on a continuous improvement plan.

 

Whilst Safety Management applies the usual ‘cause-and-effect’ risk management assessment to identified hazards, it also views hazards from a legal liability perspective.

 

An incident resulting in damage to people or property might not always be blamed on the organisation. Courts will determine the extent that a plaintiff should be held responsible for the damage but will also assess the measures that an organisation applies to prevent an incident. Managers and business owners often lack the knowledge and legal experience to assess the level of risk reduction that may be necessary to manage a hazard. Safety Management will provide recommendations to assist the organisation to maintain a balanced approach to hazard control.
