Specialist consultation on firearms usage in the workplace.
From company-wide policy and acquisition management, through to handling and storage process development and shooting instruction with competency testing. Implement, test, record, comply.
PCBUs must, so far as is reasonably practicable, provide and maintain safe systems of work.
Developing a safe system of work is a formal procedure carried out by a person with sufficient knowledge and experience. It involves:
- the systematic examination of a task to identify risks that may arise from carrying it out
- the identification of safe methods including control measures to eliminate or minimise the identified risks
- the setting of methods to safely carry out the task.
The development of safe systems of work can involve looking at the physical layout of the workplace and its access and egress, tools, plant, procedures and people (eg instruction, information, training).
For risky work, safe work methods can be formalised using a permit-to-work system.
Systems of work should be reviewed on a regular basis and updated as appropriate.

Services
How can we help?
There are a variety of ways we may be of service. From simple advice to a complete overhaul of your polices and systems, we have worked with a variety of clients from self employed individuals through to large companies.
Let us know what problems you need to solve, and we can show you how we can help.
Policy Creation and Implimentation
We have an extensive library of policy, covering most situations involving firearms. As a client, you have access to this library, as well as the ability to have custom policy made just for you.
But. Creating a policy and process is only half the job. We also train and test your staff, ensuring understanding and showing compliance with training requirements.
Instead of letting the company policy become a stale and ‘dead’ document – we are constantly refining and updating our work – ensuring you remain compliant with the rapidly changing legislation and best practice for firearms in the workplace.
Let us ensure you meet your Health and Safety requirements, ensure you are not left open to unexpected litigation and make sure all your staff go home unharmed at the end of the job.
Emergency Management Plans
Despite all your best efforts, accidents can still happen. When they do, you need to have a well thought out, planned and documented plan to put into action.
Both at a company level and site-specific, we can supply a customised emergency management plan that encompasses some of the unique risks associated with firearms handling and operation in the workplace.
Competency Training
Ethical and efficient use of firearms in the workplace not only requires the correct equipment, but also correctly trained shooters.
We establish appropriate standards and create a relevant testing process to ensure your staff are capable of delivering the required level of competency.
This is recorded to show that you have not only got the appropriate policies in place but also clearly defined standards and expectations that your staff have been shown to achieve.
Dangerous Goods
Storing Gun Powder at your workplace? You need to understand your obligations under the Hazardous Substances Act. Storing bulk powder brings its own challenges, and navigating the requirements can prove a pain in the neck.
We can advise on compliant storage solutions, emergency plans and help set up the required recording keeping and training of staff.
Firearms Supply and Management
We provide advice, supply and set up firearms for hunters and shooters. In addition, we can also supply specialist ammunition and optics – such as binoculars and thermal scopes.
Integrated into your company policies and process – we can provide the ultimate in the traceability of purchase, maintenance and disposal.
Its not enough to just have a policy in place.
Employers are also required to show understanding and complinance of systems put in place.
We help you develop the polices, processes and procedures and put them in place, then we conduct training with your staff, document that training and put regular assesments and audits in place to make sure everyone understands what is expected of them, and follows the requirements.
A living safety system
Too many safety systems are purchased, setup, and forgotten about.
Once the initial setup is done, we regularly update the systems with new policies and procedures, regularly updates and more. You are not just getting a document that gets read once and forgotten about, but rather investing in a system and group of people who have your back and continue to improve your systems for you.
