Workplace Safety Resources
Practical guides, training resources, and compliance tools to help organisations build safer workplaces.
Knowledge is the foundation of safety – The Safe Way Forward.
Working @ Heights
Falls from height account for 14% of South African construction fatalities – and almost every one is preventable. This free guide gives supervisors and HSE managers the legal requirements, the most common causes of incidents, and a 10-point prevention checklist to implement on site this week. 📥 Free download. No form required.
Hazardous Chemical Substances
The harm from chemical exposure builds silently for years — and by the time symptoms appear, it is often too late to reverse. This free guide covers what the HCS Regulations require, how to build a compliant chemical safety programme, and the 10 controls every supervisor must have in place. 📥 Free download. No form required.
Forklift and Material Handling
A fully loaded forklift carries enough force to kill instantly — and most incidents happen not through equipment failure, but through gaps in training, certification, and floor management. This free guide covers operator certification, pedestrian segregation, pre-use inspection, and a 10-point warehouse safety checklist. 📥 Free download. No form required.
Electrical Safety
Electricity kills without warning and without a second chance. This free guide covers lockout/tagout procedures, qualified person requirements, overhead line exclusion zones, and the full legal framework under the OHS Act and Electrical Installation Regulations — in one practical, supervisor-ready document. 📥 Free download. No form required.
PPE Selection Use Compliance
Issuing PPE is not the same as protecting someone. This free guide covers how to select the right equipment for each hazard, train workers to use it correctly, enforce compliance consistently, and build a PPE programme that actually works — not just ticks a box. 📥 Free download. No form required.

Know the risk. Before it knows you.
Most workplace injuries involve hazards that were already there — seen, known, and never formally assessed. This guide shows you how to find them first, control them correctly, and prove to a DoL inspector that you did.
