HazardCo

HazardCo is a health and safety platform built specifically for the construction and trade industries in Australia and New Zealand. It handles the safety documentation that most trade businesses know they need but struggle to maintain: Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS), site-specific safety plans, worker inductions, hazard identification, toolbox talks, and incident reporting.

The platform works on-site via a mobile app. Workers can complete inductions on their phone, sign in to sites, report hazards, and access SWMS relevant to the job. Site managers get a dashboard showing who's on-site, which inductions are complete, and what hazards have been flagged. All documentation is stored centrally and audit-ready.

Strengths: Built for AU/NZ compliance requirements — SWMS templates, WHS legislation alignment, and safe work documentation are all tailored to local law. The free plan covers basic safety documentation, making it accessible for sole traders. The mobile app works well on-site. Pre-built SWMS templates save hours of manual documentation. Site sign-in and induction tracking is genuinely useful for principal contractors managing subbies.

Limitations: The free plan is limited — serious use requires the paid tiers at $119+ AUD/month. The platform is focused exclusively on safety compliance — it doesn't handle job management, quoting, or invoicing. Interface can feel dated compared to modern SaaS tools. Reporting could be more granular. Integration with other trade tools is limited.

If you're a builder or trade business that needs to get safety documentation right — and you're tired of paper-based SWMS — HazardCo is the most practical solution in the AU/NZ market.
