Why is governance & due diligence important?

The roles of executives and board members with regards to WHS has changed dramatically in recent years. Since the roll out of the Model WHS Laws in Australia and NZ, obligations on officers have continued to expand including the creation of industrial manslaughter laws in most states in Australia. This has resulted in a greater need for board members, executives and senior managers to have greater strategic oversight of WHS and general risks across organisations including environmental, ESG, cyber, operational and financial risks. In addition, organisations are required to develop and maintain effective governance and compliance frameworks to assist them in meeting an array of legal and regulatory obligations that consider WHS but expand into all other business-related risks.

Whilst these requirements are mostly applicable in Australia and New Zealand, the expansion of personal liability laws associated with Health and Safety in many other nations across the word, enables our approach to be adopted globally, even in countries where these regulatory requirements do not exist yet. Ultimately, good governance adds value. It is lean, transparent and ethical, focused on tackling operational challenges in ways that complement the big picture vision.

How can businesses improve?

Organisations can improve governance in a number of ways including fostering ethical leadership, embracing transparency, and maintaining strong stakeholder engagement, organizations can establish a robust corporate governance framework. Such a framework contributes not only to the company’s success but also to the broader stability and sustainability of the business environment.

The difference.

HSE Global is different. Our purpose is to drive sustainability, and social and economic impact for the clients we serve. We use this purpose into the work we do with clients to ensure our operational and strategic experience drives outcomes by teaming together to develop innovative solutions.
