Our Focus
Our primary focus at ICAM Australia is to provide expert assistance to our clients in the Health, Safety and Environment fields via two means:
- We work proactively with our clients to try and prevent workplace incidents.
- We assist with investigations if our clients have a significant workplace incident.
Workplace incidents can have a profound impact on people and organisations, with the most critical concern of putting workers at unacceptable risk and the potential for injuries, harmful exposure, and deaths.
