Our Services include Dangerous Goods, Hazardous Chemicals, general EHS, occupational hygiene, and data analysis:  

1. Workplace Readiness Plan Development

A comprehensive, compliance-based plan to prepare workplaces for operations involving hazardous materials or high-risk environments:

• Site-specific hazard identification and risk assessment.
• Compliance alignment with WHS Regulations, GHS, and ADG Code.
• Ergonomic assessments and environmental health preparedness.
• Implementation-ready documentation, including SOPs and checklists.
• Stakeholder training on procedures and emergency preparedness.

 2. Dangerous Goods (DG) Management Policy & Program Design

A tailored DG policy framework that governs how an organisation stores, handles, transports, and disposes of DGs:

• End-to-end DG regulatory compliance (ADG, IATA, IMDG, 49 CFR, etc.).
• Classification, reclassification, and storage compatibility assessments.
• Creation of transport documentation and emergency response plans.
• Custom DG management SOPs and manifest templates.
• DGIS and SAP support for DG data integration and stewardship.

 3. Chemical Risk Assessment & Safety Data Sheet (SDS) Services

Regulatory-compliant evaluation and documentation of chemical hazards:

• Hazard and risk classification of new or existing chemicals.
• Authoring and localisation of GHS-compliant SDSs.
• Assessment for import compliance (e.g. AICIS, Border Force, TGA).
• Due diligence for chemical use, exposure control, and PPE requirements.

4. Hazardous Chemical and Material Management

Technical evaluation and safe management of chemicals and hazardous materials across their lifecycle:

• Inventory review, burndown, and hazard mapping.
• Management plans for asbestos, lead, PCBs, mercury, etc.
• HAZMAT surveys.
• Clean-up protocols and bunding/spill containment strategies.

 5. Occupational Hygiene and Exposure Monitoring Programs

Expert support for assessing and controlling workplace exposure to hazardous physical and chemical agents:

• Program design, oversight, and technical scoping for exposure assessments.
• Data analysis, interpretation, and compliance reporting aligned with WHS and international standards.
• Review and coordination of sampling strategies (noise, dusts, metals, fumes, vibration).
• Collaboration with trusted third-party providers for field sampling, as needed.
• Stakeholder engagement to translate results into actionable controls and workplace improvements.

Note: Field sampling can be arranged on a case-by-case basis through partnerships or direct negotiation, ensuring flexibility for client needs.

 6. Custom EHS Program Development & Audit Services

Setup, review or revamp of a company’s EHS systems to meet regulatory and internal risk thresholds:

• Development of bespoke EHSMS frameworks.
• Internal audit of LOTO, ergonomics, confined space, and more.
• Audit of suppliers’ risk documentation.
• Development of EHS policies, training content, and induction packages.

7. Incident Investigation & Risk Review Services

Structured analysis and prevention-oriented review of safety incidents and near misses:

• ICAM-led investigations and root cause analysis.
• Action tracking and risk reassessment plans.
• Post-incident communication strategies (alerts, lessons learned).
• Support with regulatory notification requirements.

 8. DG and EHS Training & Capacity Building

Technical training to build internal capability:

• Customised training on DG handling, SDS interpretation, PPE use, and hygiene.
• Ergonomics and respiratory protection training.
• Dangerous Goods Information System (DGIS) onboarding and compliance briefings.
• Training materials tailored to shift workers, contractors, and engineers.

 9. Human Health Risk Assessments (HHRAs)/Toxicology

Science-based assessments of health risks to workers or the public from chemical exposures in occupational and environmental settings:

• Case-by-case delivery of qualitative and quantitative HHRAs using established national and international frameworks (e.g., enHealth, NEPM, USEPA).
• Assessment of common exposure scenarios (e.g. inhalation, dermal contact, ingestion) across relevant environmental and occupational matrices.
• Conceptual site model (CSM) development and source-pathway-receptor analysis.
• Interpretation of toxicological data and regulatory screening against health-based criteria.
• Collaboration with specialised partners for complex modelling or derivation of site-specific screening levels, where required.

Note: The scope of each HHRA engagement is determined based on scenario complexity, data availability, and the need for advanced modelling or screening criteria derivation. Prism Strategies can advise on appropriate methods and refer or partner as needed.

 10. Policy & Procedure Development for Specific Hazards

Focused documentation for compliance with complex regulations:

• Lead Work Procedure and Risk Awareness Programs.
• Mercury spill clearance protocols.
• Ozone Depleting Substances and Synthetic Greenhouse Gas management policies.
• Switchboard fluid handling procedures.
