WHS Audits
Work Health and Safety audits are a critical part of ensuring your business remains compliant with both state and federal WHS laws. Our WHS audits offer a thorough assessment of your current safety practices, policies, and systems to identify potential gaps and risks. We don’t just stop at identifying issues—we work with you to develop an action plan to rectify non-compliance, mitigate hazards, and improve overall safety performance.
Our audits cover:
- Compliance with legislation such as the Work Health and Safety Act 2011
- Safe Work Australia Codes of Practice
- Hazard identification and risk assessments
- Current safety policies and procedures
- Employee safety training and awareness programs
Risk Assessments
Risk assessments are a proactive approach to managing workplace hazards and preventing injuries. At Eclon Consulting, we conduct thorough risk assessments by identifying potential hazards, evaluating the likelihood of incidents, and recommending effective control measures. Our process helps businesses create a safer workplace, reduce liability, and comply with legal obligations.
Key areas of focus include:
- Identifying specific hazards (e.g., machinery, chemicals, manual handling)
- Assessing the level of risk for each hazard
- Recommending controls based on the hierarchy of controls (elimination, substitution, engineering, administrative controls, PPE)
- Implementing and monitoring control measures
Safety Management Systems (SMS)
A robust Safety Management System (SMS) is essential for businesses looking to streamline safety processes and meet legal requirements. We develop and implement customised WHS management systems that fit your business operations and industry. Our approach ensures that your SMS is aligned with WHS regulations, improves overall safety performance, and reduces risks in the workplace.

Incident Investigation
When a workplace incident occurs, it’s crucial to conduct a thorough investigation to understand the root cause and prevent future occurrences. Our incident investigation services include using methodologies like ICAM (Incident Cause Analysis Method) to ensure a systematic approach to identifying contributing factors. We work closely with your team to develop strategies that mitigate risks and improve safety processes.
Our investigation process includes:
- Gathering evidence and conducting interviews
- Identifying root causes and contributing factors
- Developing a corrective action plan
- Implementing preventive measures

Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA)
Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA) is a critical process in WHS that aims to address workplace incidents, hazards, or non-compliance by not only fixing the immediate issue but also preventing its recurrence. Corrective actions focus on identifying the root cause of an incident and implementing changes to eliminate the hazard. Preventive actions proactively identify potential risks and mitigate them before they result in incidents. At Eclon Consulting, we help businesses develop and implement effective CAPA processes, ensuring safer work environments and continuous improvement in safety performance.
