For contractors
Your safety file, sorted. 8 minutes. R500.
Site-specific safety files that pass Department of Labour inspections and principal contractor requirements. OHS Act 85 of 1993 and Construction Regulations 2014 compliant. No monthly fees.
Legal requirement
You need a safety file before you go on site
The Construction Regulations 2014, issued under the OHS Act 85 of 1993, require every contractor to have a health and safety plan in place before construction begins. Without it, you cannot be approved by a principal contractor or pass a Department of Labour site inspection.
Traditionally, getting this file meant hiring a safety consultant — R2,500 to R3,500 and 48 to 72 hours of waiting. MySafetyFile generates the same compliant, site-specific file in 8 minutes for R500.
