Find a workplace safety assessor/auditor

You can contact one of our approved workplace safety assessors/auditors to arrange a visit to your workplace. They’ll check to see if your business meets all the requirements for either the Accredited Employers Programme (AEP) or Fleet Saver. 

Key to abbreviations

EXEMPLAR - Global certification body (RABQSA)
HASANZ - Health and Safety Association of New Zealand
JASANZ - Joint Accreditation System of Australia and New Zealand
NZISM - New Zealand Institute of Safety Management
NZOHNA - New Zealand Occupational Health Nurses' Association

RGON - Registered General Obstetric Nurse

Many of the auditors work with companies in a range of industries. Talk to them about any individual industry requirements you might have. You can then choose the right auditor for your business needs.
