Dangerous Goods Audits

Back

Overview

We carry out dangerous goods storage audits and risk assessments for bulk and packaged storages. You get a clear view of compliance and what you need to fix. Including:

Dangerous Goods Storage Audits

  • Dangerous goods storage audits based on the type, class, and quantity of goods stored
  • Placard audits aligned to storage locations and site plans
  • Manifest preparation to support fire and emergency response
  • Policy and procedure development for safe storage and handling
  • Emergency response plans covering preparedness, response actions, team roles, notifications, and incident investigation

Our compliance approach

We measure compliance against each requirement of the Act, Regulations, Compliance Codes, and relevant Australian Standards. We verify compliance by site observation and document review. Each item is assessed as compliant or non-compliant. This approach allows you to record our findings in your continuous improvement register and close out actions in a controlled way.
