Health & Safety

At Asplundh we realise the importance of safety in the workplace for our staff, our clients and the public. Our vision is simple - Safety first, no one gets hurt!

Our safety systems have been developed from over 80 years in the industry. We ensure that our clients, their customers and our staff use industry accepted systems and procedures to get the job done in a safe and efficient manner. For us, it is not a matter of complying with safety, environmental and corporate governance legislation, it is about business ethics - providing the highest standards of service to our customers, the public and our communities, as well as safe working environments for our staff.

We recognise that systematic service development and delivery has financial and ethical advantages to our business. In response we have devleloped the Safety Environment and Quality (SEQ) Manual to promote the systematic implementation of safety systems across our workplaces in Australia. It is based on an integrated approach, bringing together Safety AS/NZ 4801 and Environmental AS/NZ 14001 management under the umbrella of the Quality ISO 9000 framework.

In addition, Asplundh participates in a number of Code of Practice review boards in Australia, New Zealand and the US and ensures any changes that arise from these boards are implemented across our operations. Asplundh’s SEQ (Safety-Environment-Quality) system has been developed and implemented to comply with the requirements of ISO 9001:2000, AS/NZS 4801 and AS/NZS 14001. The system is certified and regularly audited to all of the aforementioned standards.
