About KLB

What is a WHS consultant responsible for?

A WHS consultant builds and manages the documentation, contractor checks and site systems that keep a business compliant with WHS legislation, from SWMS and risk assessments through to audits and incident response.
Rather than issuing a report and moving on, KLB works inside your business over the long term, building systems and capability so compliance is maintained continuously, not revisited only when problems arise.
KLB supports construction, civil infrastructure, telecommunications, government, utilities, manufacturing, warehousing and logistics, property, energy, transport, education, healthcare and small to medium businesses.

WHS & Contractors

KLB prepares SWMS, risk assessments and the broader suite of WHS documentation a site requires, ensuring records are accurate, current and structured to withstand scrutiny during an audit or inspection.
KLB manages subcontractor onboarding by verifying insurance, licences and certifications before work begins, then tracking this information in a register so compliance status remains visible at all times.
KLB maintains contractor and site registers, reviews documentation on a rolling basis and follows up on gaps, so compliance is tracked continuously rather than checked only at the point of engagement.

ISO & ICAM

KLB holds Lead Auditor qualifications across ISO 9001 quality, ISO 14001 environmental and ISO 45001 WHS management systems, allowing KLB to assess and support certification against all three standards.
An ICAM investigation, led by a qualified Lead Investigator, examines an incident to establish root causes rather than surface factors, then develops corrective actions to prevent similar incidents recurring.

Docs & Contracts

Document control covers version control, structured registers and workflow management, ensuring the correct version of every WHS and project document is available to the people who need it, when needed.
KLB administers contracts including variations, ensuring changes to scope, cost or timeframes are documented and managed formally rather than handled informally and left unrecorded.
When documents and contracts are controlled and current, a business can respond to an audit or inspection without scrambling to locate records, because the systems are already in place.

Client Representative

A Client Representative acts on your behalf on site, overseeing WHS and contractor compliance day to day, and coordinating other trades or specialist providers your project needs, so you’re not managing multiple relationships directly.
A project manager typically runs delivery and program. A Client Representative specifically protects your compliance and safety position on site, coordinating trades where needed, and reporting directly to you rather than to the head contractor.
