Make Your Machinery Safe — and WorkSafe-Ready
Unguarded machinery is one of the fastest routes to a serious injury and a WorkSafe prosecution. Securo’s regional consultants come to your floor, assess every guard against AS/NZS 4024, and hand you a clear, photo-backed plan to make your plant safe and compliant — without shutting down production.
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015, New Zealand businesses must ensure all machinery is safe. Inadequate guarding leads to severe injuries, operational downtime, and strict WorkSafe NZ prosecution. Securo provides independent on-site assessments to ensure your plant complies with AS/NZS 4024 standards.
Why Assess Your Machine Guarding?
It’s not just about ticking a WorkSafe box. A guarding assessment protects the people running your machines from serious injuries, keeps your production line moving, and gives you the due-diligence evidence that protects you and your directors personally if anything ever goes wrong. Put simply: it’s far cheaper — and far easier to live with — than the alternative.
