A Few of our Clients and Testimonials

To Whom it May concern,

I have used WorkSafe Services to guide and assist us with our NZ requirements for contractors and depots.  Brent was able to tailor a system that met the needs of our business and our contractors in meeting compliance with NZ legislation, plus increasing the awareness and knowledge of the contractors through electronic means.  I have no hesitation in recommending WorkSafe Services (Brent Rice) for any Health and Safety assistance.

Hi Brent

Letting you know that we’ve just sold our business. The health and safety package you set up all that time ago was an integral part of the due diligence and decision making process. The new owners well be in touch with you at some point. Thanks for all you work.

Hi Brent

just some feed back how your systems help a small business. Hope this may help for you as a example.

As a small New Zealand business its not easy to get reliable staff. All staff are put through the systems set in place by Brent and his team at Start Safe. On going training and keeping my team focused on safety is a priority

Recently one of my staff hit his head on a tree branch while doing some gardening. He reported the accident as required. However at that stage he felt ok other then a slight chip on one of his teeth and a saw bitten tongue. There seemed to be no other issues

First thing in the morning we went through our toll box meeting discussed how the accident happened, how he felt and how to avoid further accidents. That night he had not slept , as concussion can come on at a later stage after a knock to the head our procedures allowed us to make sure our work place was safe to continue to work or not. The reason for the incident was loss of focus at the end of a work day, thinking of after work activities not the job at hand. How ever with concerns of concussion I immediately took my staff member to the doctor. If my staff member had started work which includes physical heavy lifting, noise from equipment the situation may have become a serious maybe grave for him in a very a very quick time. Conclusion my staff member was identified with a case of concussion and spent the next week off work. He now focuses more on his tasks.

With out the processes in place the situation may have become a lot worse for my staff member, for my company and for my clients work place. A month on and as a result safety is taken very seriously but better still my staff focus on the job even more than ever..
