Safety Advisor

Safety Advisor services in Cape Town

A health and safety professional in your corner every month, for businesses and sites that don't need a full-time Safety Officer.

In short

A Safety Advisor is an outsourced occupational health and safety professional who manages a company's OHS compliance on a monthly basis: audits, risk assessments, legal appointments, committee meetings and advice. Siyakhatala Safety provides Safety Advisor services to construction, industrial and corporate clients in Cape Town and across the Western Cape.

What's included

  • Monthly site or workplace visit and OHS audit
  • Risk assessments and safe work procedures kept current
  • Legal appointments under the OHS Act, with competency records
  • Health and safety committee meetings and minutes
  • Incident investigation and reporting support
  • Advice by phone between visits, from a senior professional

Most businesses do not need a Safety Officer every day, but they do need someone who knows the OHS Act, keeps the paperwork right and answers the phone when something happens. That is what a Safety Advisor does. When a project grows and needs a full-time Safety Officer, we can place one.

Questions

Safety Advisor: common questions

What is the difference between a Safety Advisor and a Safety Officer?

A Safety Officer is on site full-time with the contractor. A Safety Advisor visits regularly, manages compliance and advises, without being on site every day.

Which businesses use a Safety Advisor?

Factories, warehouses, offices and contractors who need ongoing OHS compliance without a full-time employee for it.

Can you start with a once-off audit?

Yes. Many clients start with a gap analysis or compliance audit and move to monthly support once they see what is needed.
