We recommend that SafePlus onsite assessments usually involve more than one assessor, to provide the quality assurance of a peer review. Your lead assessor will identify additional assessors or subject matter experts needed for your assessment.
SafePlus assessor training and recognition
All SafePlus assessors must be listed on the HASANZ Register. HASANZ-registered professionals have had their qualifications, experience, and skills independently verified.
Assessors who trained between April 2023 and May 2024 hold the NZQA Level 6 He Ara Matatau SafePlus Assessor micro-credential. Assessors who trained prior to 2023 successfully completed training prescribed by WorkSafe, which was designed with an expert advisory group of health and safety professionals.
