Health & Safety

Environmental

The safety of our people, delivery partners, Defence personnel and the public is always our number one priority. We do not compromise – we ensure every workplace has a positive safety culture and our people have the support they need to carry out their work safely. 

Across many challenging sites – including intensive operational environments, remote locations and constrained footprints with multiple large plant and public interfaces – our safety record is second to none – Contact us for the latest safety stats.

 

The principles that guide us include:

  • A consistent focus on eliminating high risk activities

  • A rigorous system of site controls, proactively managed by experienced site managers

  • An open, inclusive culture that provides opportunities for personnel, subcontractors, clients and stakeholders to provide feedback and input on safety processes

  • Creating an environment in which nobody feels pressured to undertake any activity they feel is unsafe

  • Implementation of regular training and awareness initiatives

  • A visible commitment to safety from our leaders

Walyarra Contracting is fully committed to a construction industry that strives to minimise its environmental footprint. Through collaboration and innovation, we maintain sustainable development as a core concern of our projects and operations.

Our approach is twofold. Firstly, we employ a comprehensive Environmental Management System that encompasses early risk identification, development, implementation and governance of mitigation strategies, and close monitoring of their effectiveness. Secondly, throughout our design, procurement, construction methodology, corporate and site management practices, we aim to develop solutions that optimise environmental management and sustainability
