Quality Assurance
In undertaking council and large commercial works Roadworks NZ Ltd provide robust quality assurance framework
that provides our clientele with documented verification, inspections and tests throughout the various phases of the
construction process as required.
Roadworks NZ Ltd is a “Site Safe” member. It is company policy for all staff to obtain their Site Safe Passports
through qualifying on a Site Safe Course. This course compliments the company induction process and ensures
staff knows how to keep themselves and the public safe around heavy machinery and on a construction site.
Health & Safety Management
Our comprehensive Quality Assurance Manual further displays our commitment to providing safe and healthy
working conditions for our staff. In addition to the Site Safe Course, the company provides a thorough health and
safety induction for new employees that cover our policies on: hearing, eye, head, and foot protection; operating
and working around construction plant; excavation and trench protection; working around power lines and cables;
traffic management; fire protection and control; and dealing with emergencies in remote locations.
Site-specific health and safety plans are prepared for all our major work sites, with individual site briefings required
of all new staff and visitors to those sites.
Environment Management
Protecting the environment is now a very important issue with the community and, in particular, our local
government clientele. Under the framework of Quality Assurance, Roadworks NZ Ltd has developed company

- Erosion and sediment control
