S

iteRight is designed to provide your business with the assurance that the right health and safety practices are in place. SiteRight reviews, which some clients like to refer to as audits, will continue to be delivered by expert safety advisors across New Zealand and powered by the ecoPortal platform. Site Safe worked with the industry to deliver improvements that will best meet their needs. This includes providing

clients with their own online user-friendly and personalised dashboard to find and manage all their review information, an improved set of review questions, accurate and anonymous benchmarking of your performance against similar projects and types of companies and Safety Improvement reports are included for follow up and documenting close out of corrective actions. Users also benefit from a scoring structure which highlights any concerning

observations relating to high-risk activities whilst at the same time knowing that they will have been made safe whilst the auditor remained on-site. SiteRight provides peace of mind when engaging with staff, contractors and management. Completing a review not only measures level of compliance, but also provides evidence of due diligence and peace of mind that everything is working as it should. Woolworth’s New Zealand has been receiving reviews

for about seven years. Head of construction, Rob Jones, said he was “glad” the advisors auditing safety were overseeing projects from a “fresh set of eyes”. "I don't want to hear just the good news you know I want to hear the bad news but I have been seeing reports recently of a couple of jobs that have been coming in at 65 per cent opposed to 90 so I'm glad to see that when it is actually a low score that [way] we can address it.” SiteRight was a “useful” tool and having external reviewers viewing their live construction projects provided “comfort” to both himself and the health and safety department, Jones said. “The reports are very useful from my point of view and Woolworths having the knowledge that we have all our construction projects reviewed monthly is certainly of comfort to me.” It also helped Woolworths with “raising awareness of safety” and reaching their goals to zero harm in the workplace, he said. “They’ve got this external sort of independent audit happening on a monthly basis which I think it … just keeps [health and safety] front of mind for the live construction project and all those supervisors.
