Safety management in New Zealand has evolved significantly over the past decade – though many small to medium-sized businesses still rely on outdated, paper-based processes.

SiteConnect, based in Auckland, has been at the forefront of digital workplace health and safety management solutions for seven years. Their mission centres around making safety accessible and engaging for all businesses, regardless of size.

Key benefits

The potential penalties in New Zealand for any person or business that breaches the Health and Safety at Work Act (the Act) are considerable – particularly in the event of death or serious injury. The penalties can include significant jail time and massive financial penalties. For small to medium-sized businesses, the repercussions of breaching the Health and Safety at Work Act can be catastrophic.

With over 40 safety performance charts that enable businesses to track their health and safety management programme in real-time, SiteConnect offers a user-friendly interface for managing safety events and team communication, customisable safety plans tailored to specific needs, and encourages employee engagement in safety reporting.

Designed to scale with growing businesses, it ensures compliance with regulations, provides real-time updates, and supports data-driven decision-making.

Joining SiteConnect also connects you with a community of business owners and safety professionals for shared support and best practices. With prices starting at roughly the cost of two cups of coffee per staff member per week, SiteConnect makes advanced safety compliance tools financially accessible for small to medium businesses.

It’s all about helping businesses proactively address issues before they escalate and keeping your workers safe. Health and safety should be the number one agenda on Board papers. “Examining lead and lag indicators such as safety observations provides Boards with valuable insights into their critical risks” says Manning.

With a wealth of software functionality available at affordable prices, there has never been a better time to invest in SiteConnect.
