Work Health & Safety (WHS)
Fredon is committed to protecting our employees, sub-contractors and customers by complying with WHS legislation. Our key objectives are:
- Implementing proactive health and safety management strategies;
- Integrating WHS management into our projects at the planning stage;
- Controlling the risks of hazards by the Occupational Risk Management process of Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and Risk Control;
- Monitoring and reviewing risk controls to ensure they remain effective;
- Involving our employees in the decision making processes through structured communication, consultation and training;
- Providing ongoing education and learning for our employees to enable them to work in the safest way possible;
- Requiring employees to comply with their legislated and company WHS responsibilities;

Fredon employs full-time WHSEQ managers and co-ordinators who work in conjunction with our site teams to implement the above key objectives.
Environment
Fredon takes its commitment to the environment seriously and has implemented several initiatives to improve our carbon footprint. For example, wherever possible we pre-assemble project fixtures at our premises. This allows us to increase recycling of materials and reduce packaging travelling to site. It has the added benefit of reducing staff on-site to create a more efficient project workspace.
Fredon has extensive experience working in highly rated NABERS/ Green Star environments and have Green Star qualified engineers on staff. We have worked on many flagship environmental projects, including 161 Castlereagh Street, and Barangaroo in Sydney, which aims to be the largest carbon neutral commercial precinct in Australia.
Fredon is an active member of the Green Building Council of Australia.
Quality
Fredon has developed and implemented an integrated quality management system compliant with the international standard ISO 9001.
The integrated system described in the Fredon Management System Manual provides a framework for ensuring Fredon and our subcontractors establish and maintain best practice controls. These controls are designed to identify and rectify potential quality, as well as health, safety and environmental issues as early as possible during the provision of our services.
Fredon is currently certified by a third party auditor (Global-Mark) to ISO 9001:2016.
