Part 1: Our History — From SafetyPro to SafetyBase
1999: The Beginning
We started SafetyPro as a health and safety consulting business, specialising in workplace audits, training and safety systems. With ACC offering compliance discounts, we created a document solution that helped over 150 NZ employers achieve ACC accreditation.
As demands evolved, we introduced SafetyBase in 2007—a cloud-based platform which has continuously improved year upon year, with hundreds of updates, new features and client-driven enhancements. Built on deep expertise and real-world insights, SafetyBase is designed with flexibility and innovation, representing decades of experience.

Part 2: What We Believe — Built With You, Not Just For You
Client collaboration from day one
We don’t just listen—we act. More than 80% of SafetyBase features are direct responses to client feedback. You’ll always get honest advice, no sales fluff, and solutions that fit your operations, not the other way around.
Support is real, too. When you call, you’ll speak with someone who knows the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 inside out.
And your system? It’s more than a database—it’s a full toolkit with implementation plans, task management, and customisation options included.
We believe the best safety systems evolve with you. That’s why our Enterprise Edition is built for continuous improvement, not static templates.

Part 3: Value — Trust That Delivers
Most of the improvements we’ve made—more than 80%, in fact—come from listening to our users. Real people. Real businesses. When you engage with SafetyBase, you won’t get a glib sales pitch. You’ll get straightforward advice from experienced professionals who understand both safety and software.
We’re not just developers—we’re safety practitioners. So when you call, you’ll speak to someone who’s fluent in legislation, risk and compliance—not just code. Your platform is designed with ongoing support, expert guidance, and the flexibility to grow with you.
SafetyBase isn’t a static database. It’s a complete kit: implementation plan, task management tools and configuration options tailored to your needs. And unlike many providers, we encourage full customisation. That’s because great safety systems aren’t bought—they’re built in partnership.
Your system reflects your voice.
And that’s where real value lies—not just in saving time or ticking boxes but in building a system that aligns with your culture. We’ve walked alongside hundreds of New Zealand employers as they turned health and safety from a regulatory burden into a strategic strength.
With SafetyBase, you’re not just investing in software—you’re investing in safer, smarter operations. We’re ready when you are.

Comply with legislation
SafetyPro created SafetyBase. It's built on the internationally recognised AS/NZS 4801 standard "Health & Safety Management Systems" and current Australasian Acts and Regulations.
In 2019, we reviewed SafetyBase as a vehicle for conformance with ISO 45001. We believe the structure to be sound for use with both the above standards, provided the organisation has familiarity with the founding documents.
The SafetyBase system does not "force" conformance on you. This means you have the freedom to do only what you find right for your own situation.
Innovations
We thrive on your suggestions and we maintain an ideas and project management system. Our developers and designers share that system.
As a result, our clients have inspired most of our SafetyBase improvement projects in the last 10 years.
If you become an Enterprise Edition client, you may specify any data collection fields or folders you wish. We will modify the forms supplied with the edition and we will create brand new forms that you specify. You will get just what you want.
As a client, your ideas are our lifeblood.
Value and reliability
We take responsibility for your data security. SafetyBase was created using open source software on a LAMP platform. Site Host in Auckland is the secure hosting service, using a VPS server.
Site Host provides daily server backups and two primary co-location facilities. SafetyBase encrypts your data and backs it up hourly to Amazon S3.
We use Pingdom for uptime and response time monitoring. We employ Insomnia for routine penetration testing.
Your data is very safe with us.
