Features

Almost all Workplace Health & Safety products and services have features but your Monit system isloaded with them. One of the main features of the Monit system is the ability to calculate yourcompany’s unnecessary risk percentage.

Monit looks at all risks as either necessary or unnecessary. For examplean electrical lead is a necessary risk because there isn’t an alternative. Everyso often it needs to be tested and tagged and so by NOT doing this you havecreated an unnecessary risk. Monit’s goal is to help you remove all yourunnecessary risks. On the front screen of every Monit system is a RiskPercentage calculator that automatically works out your percentage ofunnecessary risk your workplace is currently carrying.

The Monit system is able to calculate the percentage of unnecessary risks that your company iscarrying and then work with you at your speed to reduce these risks. This will enable you to see yourprogress of risk reduction on a monthly basis.

The Monit system is a ‘dynamic Workplace Health & Safety’ system that comes complete with aprofessionally trained Monitor assigned to your account who works with you in achieving the tasks sentto you each month.

The Monitor is responsible for all the data entry into your Monit system, which enables them toassign the necessary tasks each month in the form of a checklist. This eliminates the time you spendthinking “what should I be doing” to comply with the new Workplace Health & Safety laws.

Your Monitor will also be in contact with your company to chase up any missing reports from theprevious month, and to deal with any other outstanding issues.

Monit has national partnerships with various suppliers, and a flyer about these companies goes outto you when a reminder is raised e.g. a reminder to have your equipment tested and tagged willgenerate a flyer for a company that is able to perform that task.

Company Profile

Monit has not only challenged other suppliers of Workplace Health & Safety products and services fortheir real effectiveness but also the market paradigm that all Workplace Health & Safety products andservices place a burden on business resources. Even today Monit continues to challenge currentWorkplace Health & Safety paradigms regarding the ‘successful’ running of a Workplace Health & Safetysystem and that is why its methodology carries an Australian Innovation Patent.

With foreign interest looming for Monit’s unique methodology it faced a problem of extending itself tooverseas markets. In 2009 though Monit was launched in New Zealand and not long after received a$15,000 grant from the NZ Department of Commerce to help promote the Monit system amongst thebusiness sector.

Monit has also become a preferred supplier for many Organisations and Associations who see us asa good fit for their members.

HistoryThe invention of Monit's unique Workplace Health & Safety product and its methodology came about

from a veteran tradesman who had simply had enough. For all the talk about health & safety in theworkplace he had never seen anything that even remotely changed the work culture. In order to create asafe work environment a culture of safe thinking is necessary by all workers.

So in 2001, with nothing more than a bold idea and $200 in his back pocket he set out to make a ‘realdifference’. It didn’t take long before he encountered his first obstacle when he discovered the technologyneeded to complete the software wasn’t available; that wouldn't come for another 3 years.

Once the technology was in place fast growth followed which then created another problem, hecouldn’t do everything; so in 2006 Monitors (real people) were introduced into the methodology and thistransformed this once software company into a monitoring company.

On November 2011 Monit became the first franchised Workplace Health & Safety company. Todaythere are over 40 franchisees around Australia with many more to come. That initial $200 investment hasnow grown into an international company responsible for thousands of worker's health & safety.
