Occupational Health & Safety Compliance
Health & Safety Compliance Without the Guesswork
Running a business is hard enough without wondering whether your workplace health and safety requirements are being properly managed. Malfin SA helps businesses identify compliance gaps, prepare for audits and inspections, improve their health and safety systems and understand what needs to happen next.
Workplace Readiness & Audit Preparedness
Would your business be ready for a health and safety inspection tomorrow?
Many South African employers operate with outdated health and safety files, missing risk assessments, or safety policies that employees have never read. When a Department of Employment and Labour inspector arrives or an internal audit is scheduled, these gaps quickly turn into legal liabilities and operational delays.
Are workplace risks properly identified?
Every workplace carries hazards — from physical machinery to ergonomic risks. A hazard assessment must reflect your actual daily operational reality.
Is documentation up to date?
A health and safety file is not a dusty box in a cabinet. It must contain valid appointments, policy documents, training records, and incident registers.
Are responsibilities clearly assigned?
Under the Occupational Health and Safety Act, section 16(2) appointees, safety representatives, and first aiders must be formally appointed and trained.
Are incidents recorded correctly?
When injuries or near-misses happen, they must be recorded, investigated, and reported according to statutory requirements without delay.
Do employees understand hazards?
Having safety policies on paper is meaningless if your team is unaware of safe working procedures and emergency protocol.
Could you pass an inspection?
If an inspector asks for statutory records today, can you produce them immediately with total confidence?
