Residential building sites are inherently hazardous workplaces, with staff and contractors working at heights, operating power tools, and lifting and manoeuvring heavy materials – which means for anyone running a business in the residential building industry, managing onsite safety is a huge part of your day-to-day responsibilities. It is not just about mitigating risks for your own staff; it’s also about protecting your contractors, clients and anyone else who visits your site.
Keep Our People Safe
“Keep our people safe” highlights the importance of taking a holistic approach to safety and allows activities aimed at both improving safety outcomes on site and improving the approach to safety across the industry.
- Making onsite safety measures practical
- Making safety part of doing business
- Increasing awareness and education of the risks in residential building work

We are here to help - Keep Our People Safe
As our industry grows, the more important it will be to keep our workers focused on the importance of proper safety practices.
- Mental Health
People in the building industry unfortunately have a higher than average rate of mental health concerns. We can help you understand the signs of mental health conditions, to be there for your colleagues, and to seek support as early as possible. - Doing the Basics
You may have heard from a sports coach growing up, ‘it’s just about getting the basics right’. The same can be said across the worksite. Although we know the residential building industry comes with its risks, complacency can happen which has meant the increase of physical injury rates on the worksite. The Common Sensei has been enlisted to help remind us that doing the basic techniques can help prevent serious injuries. Check out what the Common Sensei has to say. - HIA Can Help
HIA can help your business implement sound workplace safety practices with its comprehensive package of safety systems, tools and advice. As an independent safety practitioner, HIA can perform risk assessments of your workplace and practices and help your business implement the safety systems it needs.
Enough is enough with ‘she’ll be right’ thinking
