About

Welcome to Advantage A.C.T’s website.

We provide Occupational Health, Safety, Environmental & quality (SHEQ) products and services to our valued clients on the African continent.

Advantage A.C.T will be 10 years new in 2010 and we aim to continue making a difference in the SHEQ-field for many years to come.

The purpose of this site is to provide you with a quick glance into our world, our culture and SHEQ competencies.

Please contact us should you require additional information.

SHEQ Training

At Advantage A.C.T we aim to provide our clients with a learning experience that they will not find anywhere else.

We try and make the knowledge and skills you receive on our SHEQ courses last longer, our course facilitators to go further and the learners to reach higher.

Being a Health & Welfare SETA accredited institution (South Africa), we believe in effective knowledge and skill transfer through outcomes-based SHEQ courses.

We believe, the quality of our SHEQ training help our clients be more successful.

Auditing

Advantage A.C.T. is equipped to offer auditing services on the ISO9001, ISO14001 as well as OHSAS18001 standards.

Our auditing services benefit from our practical management system implementation experience that can only be gained through a blue-chip client-base.

We have strong Legal Compliance audit capabilities that extend further than mere Occupational Health and Safety Act or Mine Health and Safety Act compliance.

Advantage ACT believes that the quality of our SHEQ auditing services help our clients be more successful.

Consulting

Our consultants assist industry and mining organisations to implement complete solutions for their Occupational Safety, Health, Environmental and Quality needs.

We know how to obtain managements’ commitment, write a SHEQ policy, compile procedures, appointment documentation and registers.

With the consulting experience gained during the last 10 years, we know what a ISO/OHSAS-based management system should consist of.

Our knowledge of integrated SHEQ systems help our clients be more successful.

Upcoming Courses

Legal Liability For Managers Workshop

Date: 5 August 2010       Presenter: Christel Fouché

Ignorance in the eye of the law is not an excuse!

The legal liability course for Managers, facilitated by Christel Fouche, Managing Director of Advantage ACT focuses on “hands on” understanding of various SHE legal issues that confront managers.

There is a big difference between civil, criminal, strict and vicarious liability. When you signed your 16.2 and other appointment letters, what accountability and responsibility did you sign for? In fact very few employees/managers know? This session will provide clarity on the accountabilities and responsibilities you have accepted with your appointment.

You can download more information here.

To register for this special morning session, please contact Riekie van den Berg to avoid disappointment.
