SAFETY & COMPLIANCE
Apex Earthworks recognises the critical importance of Occupational Health & Safety for all project personnel and the broader community.
We also respect the environments in which we operate. Consequently, Apex Earthworks’ business practices reflect our commitment to achieving ‘Zero Harm’ with regards to safety and environmental management.
We provide our clients with the best possible solution for each project, thinking dynamically to achieve the best practice results.
Apex Earthworks personnel are provided with extensive specialised training and understand the challenges of working within the industry and construction environment.
Promoting a strong health, safety and environmental culture, Apex Earthworks delivers projects by living the following principles:
PEOPLE:
Ensuring personnel are trained and competent in their tasks and roles.
PLANNING:
Ensuring projects are carefully planned and executed in line with that plan.
EQUIPMENT:
Ensuring plant and equipment are appropriately selected for each task and maintained to a high level.
CHANGE:
Ensuring that when change occurs, the safety and environmental risks are re-assessed and new controls implemented accordingly.
Integrated Management System:
Apex Earthworks operates under an Integrated Management System (IMS), which has been implemented and successfully audited on Federally Funded projects.
The IMS is independently certified by QMS against the national and international standards for occupational health and safety (ISO AS/NZS 45001:2018 ), environmental (ISO AS/NZS 14001:2015) and quality assurance (ISO AS/NZS 9001:2015).
Apex Earthworks as part of its Risk Management process uses the IMS to ensure appropriate planning of all operations. This is demonstrated by the development of a Project Management Plan which is developed for each individual project. This plan covers all areas within each project to ensure compliance with all quality, safety, environmental and client requirements.
