At the fore front of our operations are our solid Health & Safety policies and practices. We work with both Clients and Candidates to ensure there is constant monitoring, and fit-for-site procedures being developed to provide proactive H&S management on site. We know every site is different, that’s why at Building Recruitment everyone is provided with access to the HazardCo app to maintain best practice Health & Safety standards that are compliant with today’s legislation. Mental Wellbeing is just as important in our industry, that’s why we have partnered with Mates in Construction now for over 6 years and became the first ever Accredited Recruitment Agency this year. All our staff are Mates Inducted, and we have Connector and Asist trained staff available. Our Take 5 and the 10 Golden Rules are essential frameworks for workplace safety, designed to encourage proactive risk assessment and responsible behaviour. Take 5 is a simple yet effective safety tool that prompts workers to pause and assess risks before starting a task. The 10 Golden Rules reinforce key safety principles that help maintain a secure work environment. Both frameworks emphasize personal responsibility and collective accountability, aligning well with your structured approach to workplace safety. They encourage workers to be proactive, detail-oriented, and mindful—qualities that resonate with your focus on compliance and continuous improvement.

We implemented this software due to the fact it does all the heavy lifting and puts H&S tools in everyone’s hands with the on-site App. All staff from Laborers to the CEO have access to this on any device 24/7, which makes managing ALL our Health & Safety Requirements as easy as picking up your phone. Live time reporting to all management staff no matter where they are, enables Building Recruitment to act swiftly to provide support or resources when it matters, as well as 24/7 incident advice from independently trained NZ professionals. ### Toolbox Meetings **Toolbox Meetings** are short, focused safety discussions held before work begins. They serve as a proactive way to reinforce workplace safety, encourage communication, and ensure that all team members are aware of potential hazards and best practices. ### No more Pen and Paper - Site Sign in **Signing in** on site is a crucial process for workplace safety, security, and compliance. It ensures that all personnel and visitors are accounted for, aware of site-specific hazards, and compliant with necessary regulations. ### Site Reviews and Task Analysis Site Reviews and Task Analysis are essential components of workplace safety and operational efficiency. --- ## How to identify and report an issue It’s never been easier to report an incident with the HazardCo App. All you have to do is pick up your phone, login in, fill out the Incident Form and DONE!
