Safetysure provides comprehensive professional accident investigators in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne to support a range of work safety incidents and accidents at sites within Australia and South East Asia. Our team has experience in the conduct of:
- Fatality Investigations; (including forensic examination of work safety systems, procedures, staff training and other human resources matters);

- Providing advice to legal counsel on various strategies to mitigate future incidents.
- Liaising with Worksafe and other Government regulatory bodies following the incident and assisting in implementing corrective actions following prohibition or improvement notices.
- Managing other external experts (forensic examiners, engineers, public relations personnel, psychologists and others).
We provide independent accident investigation services to Governments, Corporations, Not-for-Profits, and families of deceased or injured workers. We professionally unpack the incident/accident and examine all causative factors associated with the occurrence through the application of a range of methodologies for work accident investigation.
Over the past several years we have supported a range of organisations to liaise with regulatory bodies, legal counsel, coronial investigators and injured workers to determine the causes of accidents and incidents and ultimately prevent them from occurring again.
Our accident investigators come from a variety of professional backgrounds including:
- Engineering;
- Psychology
- Work Safety Professional;
- Data Analysts;
- Human Resources.
We typically can respond Australia-wide immediately following an incident or accident to ensure the process is as seamless as possible for our clients. We are also highly attuned to the emotive issues and sensitivities surrounding a work-related accident. Through our structured processes, we seek to ensure that the psychosocial issues that impact those close to accidents and incidents are managed with the sensitivities they deserve at these critical times.
