Safety &
compliance

The compliance of an event and the safety of everyone on site is our primary consideration – and every system we run is developed accordingly.

Management systems

Compliance is the
first design decision

Our operational and safety frameworks have been proven across events of all scales – and we keep refining them.

We remain committed to ongoing industry advancement by collaborating closely with the National Electrical & Communications Association (NECA), local authorities and relevant bodies to stay ahead of evolving Australian Standards.

Every EVENTelec team member holds the required electrical and industry licences and brings extensive experience in planning, installing and commissioning temporary electrical systems – from primary switchboard infrastructure through to complex technical media centres.

Coupled with ongoing investment in innovative plug-and-play technology, we are dedicated to leading the industry in safety, compliance and environmental responsibility.

The safety of everyone on site is our primary consideration.

Safety systems

Two platforms,
one live record

We implement both the NECA National Safety Management System and our own safety management software to manage WHS and compliance across all projects. These live, automated platforms provide seamless communication between field teams, operations staff and clients.

01

NECA national system

The National Electrical & Communications Association’s safety management program, run in partnership with state and territory electrical regulators.

02

Our own software

A proprietary safety management platform that links every employee to operations and to the client – live, automated, and updated from the field.

03

Digitally logged records

Induction sign-ons, pre-start registers and installation certificates are logged and tracked to ensure alignment with Australian Electrical Standards and AS codes.

04

Paperless on site

80% paperless project and OHS systems on smart devices. Forms are completed and approved in real time and sent directly to clients.

Safety by design

Risk is engineered
out, not managed later

Our philosophy behind each project is simple: to create safe and effective systems that meet client objectives. Every design is tailored to the brief using our in-house electrical overlay design software, structured around five key principles.

Safety in practice

Where it gets tested

Compliance is easy to write down and hard to hold under a live schedule. These are events where the constraint was safety – an operating venue, a hostile site, a crowd already inside the fence.

With the facility remaining fully operational throughout installation, maintaining athlete, staff and team safety was paramount. The project demanded precision planning and execution to stay on schedule while safeguarding every stakeholder – from generator placement meeting international standards through to optimised cable pathways.

Disciplined execution also cut fuel use from an estimated 17,000 litres to 7,000 by shutting down non-essential generators overnight and optimising air conditioning schedules – 230 athletes from 41 nations, across twelve events, with no compromise to the run.

They are onsite at all events and respond with any issues within minutes.
