WHS Consulting and Advisory

Coastara provides WHS consulting and advisory services that go beyond compliance. We work with organisations to build practical safety systems that reduce risk, protect people, and support stronger operational performance.

Our services are designed to support organisations at any stage, whether you’re establishing safety systems from the ground up, strengthening existing frameworks, or complementing an internal WHS team with additional capability and expertise.

We take a flexible, partnership-based approach, providing the right level of support to suit your business, your risk profile, and how you operate.

  • Safety Management Systems aligned to WHS legislation, ISO standards, and industry best practice, tailored to your organisation’s operations, risk profile, and workforce.

    Covers system design, review, and refinement, supported by modern, practical documentation and aligned to how work is performed in reality. Implementation focuses on effective rollout, integration, and ongoing improvement, ensuring systems are embedded, auditable, and consistently applied.

  • Coastara delivers structured incident investigations using recognised methodologies including ICAM and TapRooT®, ensuring a consistent and defensible approach.

    We focus on identifying root causes and systemic contributors, providing organisations with clear insights that extend beyond immediate events. Investigations can be conducted under legal professional privilege where required, supporting the management of sensitive information and regulatory exposure.

    Our approach is outcome focused. We work with organisations to translate findings into practical, implementable actions that address underlying risk, rather than creating additional administrative layers that do not drive meaningful change.

  • WHS audits and inspections aligned to current legislative requirements, ISO standards, and organisational obligations.

    Covers system audits, compliance reviews, certification readiness, and targeted assessments of critical risk areas, alongside contractor and operational safety.

    Delivered through both desktop review and field-based inspection, providing a clear view of how systems are designed, implemented, and performing in practice, with actionable insight to strengthen compliance and overall safety performance.
