Industry: Construction
Location: Nationwide (NZ)
Services Delivered: Audits, Culture Engagement, HSWA Alignment, Ongoing Support
The Client
National Group Ltd is a leading provider in the construction industry, renowned for high health and safety standards and ISO 45001 certification.
Their goal was to ensure that safety practices weren’t just theoretical policies, but practical systems actively used on-site to protect staff and support efficient delivery.
The Challenges
Verification of compliance – uncertainty about whether safety standards and objectives were consistently met.
Consistency across remote sites – varying local conditions made standardisation difficult.
Employee engagement – safety policies were not always embraced by frontline staff.
Previous consultancy shortcomings – earlier advisors failed to deliver practical, lasting improvements.
The Solutions
Culture & Engagement Session – facilitated clear discussions across leadership and staff to identify maturity levels and opportunities.
Verifying Existing Practices – comprehensive reviews against HSWA 2015 and industry best practice, including site visits and documentation checks.
Remote Site Audits – in-depth audits at multiple project sites to identify gaps, risks, and opportunities for improvement.
Actionable Roadmap – clear, prioritised recommendations turned into real-world actions.
The Outcomes
Enhanced compliance & safety practices – alignment between written policies and on-site behaviours.
Standardised safety measures across sites – consistent processes reduced incidents and delays.
Addressed previous consultancy gaps – actionable insights drove measurable improvements.
Strengthened safety culture – staff buy-in improved, supporting long-term engagement.
Conclusion
By turning policy into practice, National Group not only protected their people but also boosted efficiency across every site.
With ongoing quarterly audits, training, and clear data-driven reporting, Advanced Safety continues to help National Group maintain high standards and strong momentum nationwide.
"If you're just looking after your own health and safety, you can easily be steering well away from what is considered best practice. I would definitely recommend Advanced Safety services".
