Health & Safety

Safety is our Number 1 Priority

Safety comes first in everything that we do in electrical contracting and mechanical services.

That is why PSG is a member of the Master Electricians Australia. Master Electricians have developed a sophisticated electrical safety management system for Australian electrical contractors, referencing Quality Assurance standards HSEQ ISO 9001.

This system, known as Safety Connect, ensures that PSG Facility Services meets all obligations under the all national safety schemes.

The company’s mechanical services and electrical contractor operations are managed by a cloud based job & OHSE Management systems. This has integrated Australian Standards, safety procedures, SWMS (safe work method statements) & MSDS (material safety data sheets), job specific photographs and technical specification information. This essential information is constantly available to our mechanical engineers and electricians via mobile devices.

These health & safety systems ultimately provide protection to you, our client and our team.

The electrical installation industry is one of the most dangerous. The implementation of Safety Connect’s Safety Management Manual ensures health & safety compliancy to the highest standard across our electrical and mechanical services operations. This system is managed by continued monitoring from Safety Connect, with regular supervised training, monthly safety meeting, annual safety and quality audits.

PSG Facility Services ensures our clients’ work is of the highest possible standard in Australia under the national safety scheme.

Mechanical Services & Electrical Contractor Safety Manual

Our OHS Policy and Procedures Manual contains all the procedures for safe work. We have developed our OHS Policy and have planned how our OHSMS is going to work.

We have implemented a safety system through communication and instruction so that everyone in the workplace knows what is expected of them.

We regularly evaluate our mechanical services & electrical contractor OHSMS performance through our Quarterly OHS Systems and Documentation Reviews.

Our Management reviews our mechanical services & electrical contractor OHSMS after the results of each Quarterly OHS Systems and Documentation Reviews by examining the results of the review, and review of the Tasks (Tasks and Risk Assessments), and by liaising with Workers (at regular meetings) to provide a clearer picture on how we can improve our performance.

Finally, our OHSMS Plan is the order by which we will carry out first implementing our policies, then reviewing, maintaining, and improving mechanical services and electrical contractor OHS within our workplace.
