01Understand exposure
02Verify what matters
03Act with confidence

Executives do not need more safety noise. They need to know what can be relied upon.

Which material risks are being controlled — and which are only being described?
Where does the evidence support the board pack, the tender, the regulator response or the assurance statement?
What decisions, resourcing and verification are required now?
02Services

Private advisory, system assurance and critical-risk support for high-consequence work.

Each engagement is scoped around the executive decision in front of you: assurance, due diligence, regulatory response, tender readiness, operational uplift or leadership alignment.

01

WHS System Review & Roadmap

A board-ready view of whether the WHS system matches the work. Documents, evidence and implementation are tested, then translated into exposure, priorities and a practical improvement roadmap.

02

Audit, Assurance & ISO 45001 Gap Analysis

Independent assurance that separates documentation gaps, implementation gaps, accountability gaps and evidence gaps. ISO 45001, 9001 and 14001 alignment with executive summaries and risk-ranked findings.

03

Safety System Design & Documentation

Lean, usable safety systems that leaders can govern and workers can apply. Policies, standards, WHS plans, SWMS, registers and governance frameworks built for evidence and adoption.

04

Contractor & Construction Risk Management

Critical control, contractor and construction-risk advice for owners, sponsors and delivery teams. Prequalification, onboarding, mobilisation, Safety in Design, assurance and escalation models.

05

Incident Investigation & Learning

Independent investigations that protect learning, preserve regulator readiness and identify the conditions that made the event possible — not just the person closest to it.

06

Leadership, Culture & Public Speaking

Executive briefings, board sessions and leadership workshops that translate WHS duties, critical risk and safety culture into decisions leaders can act on.

07

Ongoing WHS Advisory & Site Support

Retained or project-based access to senior WHS judgement: governance support, assurance planning, site reviews, tender support and monthly executive oversight.

03Approach

A principal-led method built around the executive decision, the evidence base and the controls that matter most.

01

Understand the decision

Clarify what leaders need to know, rely on, defend or improve before reviewing the paperwork.

02

Map the exposure

Identify the work, duty holders, critical risks, accountabilities and operating constraints.

03

Review the evidence

Examine documents, records and implementation — what the system claims and what it can demonstrate.

04

Test the controls

Pressure-test controls against site practice, contractor interfaces and real operating conditions.

05

Prioritise action

Rank findings by material exposure, consequence, effort and dependency — not by paperwork volume.

06

Support implementation

Turn findings into owners, rhythm and practical improvement so the work does not end at the report.

04AI-assisted method · Human-led judgement

Technology for speed.
Senior judgement for meaning.
Executive-ready by design.

AI-assisted review can accelerate evidence triage, document comparison and drafting — especially where large safety systems need to be interrogated quickly.

The value still comes from experienced judgement: understanding the work, testing what matters, protecting context and converting information into decisions a senior team can actually make.

The principle Tools process volume. Experience interprets exposure.

07About

Principal-led, by design.

Marsh Safety Solutions is led by Lucas Marsh — a WHS professional with more than a decade across high-risk energy, infrastructure, mining, defence and field operations.

The model is deliberately boutique: senior judgement from the first conversation through to the final finding, with trusted specialists brought in only where scale or technical depth requires it.
