Documentation →Built for the contractors big firms turn down

- Your ISN grade is red or yellow
- Your safety manual lives in three binders
- Your audit date is coming and your records aren't ready
- On-site safety coordinators
- Ongoing toolbox talk delivery
- Training matrix administration
- Auditing a program we helped build
From first call to finished file
Free 15-minute call
What's driving this: a bid, a hiring client, an audit date. We decide together whether it's a fit.
Written scope
A short proposal: objective, scope, approach, timeline and an hourly estimate with a range.
Remote delivery
Work happens over email and Teams. You review drafts; we revise until they fit how you run jobs.
Handover
Editable files, an explanation of what changed and why, and what to keep up after the work is done.
Hourly, with no surprises
- Every job starts with a written estimate range and a not-to-exceed total.
- 50% deposit, applied against actual hours worked. Nothing extra on top.
- Invoiced every two weeks with hours itemized.
- If the work runs over estimate, you're asked first. Always.
COR & SECOR preparation
A Certificate of Recognition shows your health and safety management system meets Alberta's audit standard. Prime contractors ask for it, and it can qualify you for WCB-Alberta Partnerships in Injury Reduction refunds. We get your program and records ready for the audit.
COR or SECOR?
| SECOR | COR | |
|---|---|---|
| Company size | 10 or fewer people, counting owners, admin, part-time, temporary, family and volunteers | 11 or more people, or smaller employers who choose the full program |
| Audit | Small-employer audit tool, sized for a crew that knows everyone by name | Full audit covering every element of the management system, with interviews and site observation |
| Certifying partner | For construction employers, the Alberta Construction Safety Association (ACSA). Membership is required for both. | |
| What we do | The same preparation process, scaled to the size of your company and the audit tool. | |
Program rules change. Confirm current requirements and audit-year deadlines with ACSA before you commit to a date.
What preparation covers
Gap analysis
A review of your current program and records against the audit elements, with a written list of gaps ranked by how much each one will cost you on audit day.
Program build or rebuild
Policy, hazard assessment, hazard controls, inspections, training, emergency response and incident investigation, written in plain language for your trade.
Records that hold up
A filing structure that lets you pull a year of inspections, FLHAs and training records in an afternoon instead of a week.
Maintenance support
Already certified? Annual maintenance-year check-ins, action-plan follow-up and fixes for last audit's findings.
We prepare you. We don't audit you. Under the auditor code of ethics, anyone who helped build your health and safety system can't audit it for the following 12 months. You'll get an independent audit, and a program that holds up in front of one.
ISNetworld setup & upkeep
Hiring clients use ISNetworld to decide who can bid. A red or yellow grade can keep you off a job regardless of how good your crews are. We set your account up properly and keep it current.
Setup
- Account and company profile completed
- Management System Questionnaire answered from your actual program
- Written programs uploaded and matched to review requirements
- Insurance, WCB clearance and injury statistics entered
- Each hiring client's extra requirements mapped and met
Upkeep
- Expiring certificates and documents renewed on time
- Annual statistics and questionnaire updates
- Responses to program reviews and deficiencies
- New hiring clients added as you win work
- Hourly as needed, or a set monthly block
Avetta, ComplyWorks and other platforms: our hands-on experience is with ISNetworld. If your hiring client uses another platform, say so on the first call and we'll tell you honestly whether we're the right fit.
Safety manuals & field forms
Your crews should find the documentation useful, not just file it for auditors. We rewrite manuals and field forms so they're shorter, clearer and match how your jobs actually run.
Safety manual revision
Reorganized, de-duplicated and rewritten in plain language. Aligned to the audit elements so an auditor can find what they need, and to your trade so a foreman can too.
Field-level hazard assessments
FLHA forms sized to a clipboard or a phone screen, with the hazards your trade actually faces already listed.
Inspections & incident reports
Site and equipment inspection checklists, incident and near-miss reports, and corrective-action tracking that closes the loop.
Digital form templates
Forms rebuilt in field apps like SiteDocs, so paper-era workarounds don't carry over into the digital system.
Site App Pro partner
Thinking about moving your forms off paper? AJH Safety Solutions is a Site App Pro partner and can refer you directly to their team.
Written for you, not recycled. Every document is built from scratch around your company, your work and your hazards. You own all of it when the job is done, in formats you can edit.
