Launching Our New Website!

Embracing the Digital Age: Lakes Safety Services’s New Website Launch

At Lakes Safety Services, we’ve always been committed to providing tailored, professional health and safety consultancy and training solutions to businesses across New Zealand. Our mission is to enable businesses to achieve practical health and safety outcomes through systems-based solutions. Today, we’re excited to announce a significant step forward in our mission – the launch of our new website!

Our new website is designed to provide a user-friendly experience with improved navigation and functionality, allowing customers to access detailed product information and resources with the option to share information across all major social networking sites.

We used the expert services of Revibe Digital, to build our new website  and manage our hosting services & support.

Why a New Website?

In the digital age, a website is more than just a company’s online presence. It’s a platform for us to connect with our clients, share valuable information, and provide easy access to our services. We believe that our new website will serve as a valuable resource for businesses seeking health and safety solutions.

What’s New?

Our new website boasts a clean design and an intuitive and consistent site-wide navigation system with improved menu functionality that directs you to the information most relevant to you. It is also fully responsive with mobile devices, making it easy to navigate on a wide range of web browsers and portable devices.

We’ve introduced a range of new content to the website, including a blog section, and a resources section where you can access a wide range of educational and informative materials about health and safety.

Easy Access to Services

We’ve made it easier than ever to learn about Lakes Safety Services’s services and access our extensive resource library. You can now find detailed information about our consulting services, safety services, governance and leadership, contractor safety, and our partnership with SaferMe.

Blog and Resources

Our new blog will feature regular updates from the Lakes Safety Services team, industry news, tips and advice, and insightful articles about health and safety. The resources section will host a variety of health and safety guides, templates, and checklists that you can download and use in your business.

Looking Ahead

We’re excited about the possibilities our new website brings, and we look forward to growing our online presence and finding new ways to provide valuable content to our clients and visitors.

We invite you to connect with us on our new website and discover how Lakes Safety Services can help you achieve practical health and safety outcomes. Visit us at www.lakessafety.co.nz.

We hope you enjoy our new look! Thank you for your ongoing support. We look forward to continuing to serve your health and safety needs.

Hear It from Our Clients

See the impact we've had on businesses and how we could do the same for you.

We can’t speak highly enough of Lake Safety Services and Derek in particular. Rather than applying a cookie-cutter template, Derek took the time to genuinely understand our business and our processes before putting anything together. The result was a health and safety solution that fits like a glove – tailored, practical, and clearly built around how we actually operate, not just a generic checklist. If you’re after a consultancy that treats your business as unique rather than “one of many,” Derek and the team at Lake Safety Services are the ones to call!

Jacques Schoeman

Director

MAD Media Ltd – New Plymouth

Highly recommend this health and safety company! They provided top-notch service for our roofing business, ensuring everything was up to standard. Their team was professional, thorough, and easy to work with. We feel confident knowing our safety measures are in excellent hands. Great job.

Laurence

Storm Tech Roofing – Hawkes Bay

We are a small yet complex organisation and have been working with Derek for the past year with the goal of creating a robust health and safety system that is maintained through internal ownership and embedded into business as usual. While Derek is knowledgeable, professional, and enthusiastic, his real superpower is working alongside the team to create a system which is tailored and practical, all while growing internal capacity. We would absolutely recommend Derek.

Lake Taupo Hospice

Through Derek, Lakes Safety Services provided an extremely thorough and personalised service to Broadlands School. Derek’s scope was the review the school’s EOTC practices and to make recommednations in changes to policy and day to day management practices including practical EOTC staff documentation. This brief was very well achieved! Derek has also provided great follow up service and a willingness to assist with any future EOTC draft policies before being adopted by the Board.

Principal

Broadlands School

Derek was approachable, experienced, and readily available (at very short notice) for what was required for our H&S work site induction. Highly recommend should your company be in need of a person to tackle H&S matters.
