Safety (WHS and OHS)

Safety training doesn’t need to be dry to be effective. We design programs that make safety part of the culture — embedded in how people think, act and lead.

Safety training doesn’t need to be dry to be effective. We design programs that make safety part of the culture—embedded in how people think, act and lead. From site inductions to psychosocial safety and high-stakes rail environments, we build learning that’s clear, relevant and gets remembered for the right reasons.

Our team brings serious experience in WHS and OHS training. We’ve worked with industries where safety is the difference between risk and reassurance, from energy and infrastructure to logistics, transport, and healthcare.

We create sharp, engaging programs across a range of safety topics and delivery formats, including:

  • Online and blended WHS and OHS training
  • Site, role and system inductions
  • Psychosocial safety programs
  • Safe work practices and risk awareness
  • Rail signalling and track safety
  • Marine, environmental and biodiversity safety
  • Bullying, harassment and respectful workplace behaviour
  • Fatigue, asbestos, silica and manual handling awareness
  • Fire safety and emergency response
  • Safety leadership and culture programs
  • Safety campaigns, toolkits and microlearning
  • Manager toolkits and train-the-trainer resources

RECENT PROJECTS

We’ve developed safety programs for teams across railutilities, construction, healthcare, logistics, and more.

Recent projects include:

  • Updating and modernising large volumes of WHS eLearning, including 20+ modules across safety systems and initiatives
  • Designing psychosocial safety training aligned to legislative updates
  • Creating blended safety programs for rail track workers, signallers, supervisors and control room operators
  • Building role-based safety inductions for high-risk environments, including energy, gas and construction
  • Developing WHS campaigns with toolkits and manager resources to embed safety beyond the screen
  • Delivering online learning for drug and alcohol awareness, silica, asbestos, and manual handling
  • Creating rail-specific safety content across Levels 1–5 and multiple modes of delivery
  • Writing WHS fundamentals and compliance courses for new starters and contractors
  • Building cultural leadership and safety programs delivered via blended learning
  • Developing train-the-trainer resources to support local delivery of safety messages
  • Mapping learning content to WHS frameworks and regulatory requirements
  • Designing interactive fire safety and emergency response eLearning
  • Producing microlearning and refreshers to support behaviour change over time

Our programs meet legislative requirements, align with Australian safety frameworks, and are designed to change mindsets, not just check boxes. Whether it’s a full-scale program or a focused module, we make safety learning stick.

We combine adult learning principles with strong instructional and visual design to make safety training practical and memorable. That includes:

  • Real-world scenarios and decision points to build application
  • Interactive eLearning using authoring tools like Rise, Storyline and Chameleon Creator
  • Job-relevant visuals and diagrams to support knowledge retention
  • Manager and peer toolkits to support on-the-job conversations
  • Campaign-style resources to shift culture and behaviour (not just knowledge)

We design with the end learner in mind, keeping learning practical, relevant, and built for the real-world situations they face on the job.

Yes, we regularly refresh and modernise outdated safety content. This could involve:

  • Auditing your current learning against legislation and best practice
  • Improving structure and clarity using adult learning principles
  • Rebuilding content in updated authoring tools (Rise, Storyline, Chameleon Creator)
  • Rewriting language to be clear, direct and action-focused
