The Compliance Gap

The Construction WHS Compliance Gap

The difference between scrambling and being inspection-ready.

Without FormaOS

SafeWork inspector arrives unannounced - scramble to find current SWMS across spreadsheets, emails, and filing cabinets

Subcontractors arrive on-site without valid inductions or licences - you carry the liability

Notifiable WHS incident happens - 48-hour SafeWork notification deadline tracked in someone's head

Managing compliance across 5+ active sites with spreadsheets - gaps emerge between projects unseen

VS

With FormaOS

Every SWMS is version-controlled, signed off, and exportable by site - hand the inspector a structured evidence pack instantly

Contractor verification pipeline checks inductions, licences, and insurance before site access - automatic alerts on expiry

Incident pipeline with countdown timer, site preservation checklist, and structured SafeWork notification workflow - zero missed deadlines

Multi-site dashboard shows compliance score, incident count, SWMS currency, and contractor status per project in real time
