Operating within

LIVE INSPECTION FEED

Compliance you can watch happen

A live illustration of how BEAS tracks inspections from pending to cleared, in real time. This is a working demonstration of our process, not historical data.

WHY THIS MATTERS

The exposure is personal,
not just corporate

CriminalDirectors, managers, and supervisors face personal prosecution under the OHS Act for site safety failures — not only the company.
RegisteredConstruction Health and Safety Officers must be SACPCMP-registered under Construction Regulations 2014 — unregistered appointments are not deemed competent.
SpecialisedScaffold inspection is its own certified competency under SAQA-registered unit standards, distinct from general safety officer registration.
ResilientSouth Africa's OHS services market is valued at roughly R6.8bn, growing steadily even as broader construction activity has contracted.

OUR FIVE DIVISIONS

Five genuinely distinct competency groups — not a long list of overlapping labels.

THE DIFFERENCE

Before BEAS. After BEAS.

Safety officers and access inspectors sourced ad hoc, with no consistent registration verification across contractors.
Compliance status lives in scattered paper files, discovered to be incomplete only during an audit or after an incident.
Environmental and quality oversight handled informally, with no structured reporting trail.
Risk and ESG reporting assembled reactively, usually under deadline pressure from a client or regulator.
SACPCMP-aligned safety officers and certified access inspectors, verified and consistently deployed across every site.
Live, auditable compliance status for every inspection — visible before an audit, not discovered during one.
Structured environmental and quality assurance reporting, integrated into one governance framework.
Risk and ESG reporting maintained continuously, ready whenever a client, lender, or regulator asks.

Annual growth rate (CAGR) of the SA OHS services market
9 yrs
Consecutive years of construction sector contraction — yet compliance demand persists

South Africa's broader construction sector has contracted for nine consecutive years, but regulatory exposure doesn't shrink with construction volume — personal liability under the OHS Act applies regardless of how many projects are active. The occupational health and safety services market has grown steadily through this period, and infrastructure investment plans for 2027-2029 point toward renewed demand.
