Certification

Become a certified Secure Place to Work

Five steps from first login to a certified workplace. Score above 70% on the annual survey and you are certified — fall short and you get a roadmap, not a rejection.

Certification process

Your certification journey

A full cycle runs across a year, with the survey as the checkpoint.

70%

The survey score required to certify. The free Secure Score uses the same threshold, so you can see roughly where you stand before committing to the process.

  1. 01

    Onboard and deploy the app

    Once your organisation connects with us we guide you through onboarding: we set up your profile, provide secure admin and safety logins, and activate your dashboard so you can upload employee data, assign volunteers and start using Secure Place.

  2. 02

    Train staff and run mock drills

    Certified trainers deliver the sessions your workplace needs. Your team then runs mock drills through the platform, with participation and evacuation time recorded automatically.

  3. 03

    Annual survey conducted

    An audited survey measures readiness across your locations — emergency response, reporting channels, training coverage, drill history and statutory compliance.

  4. 04

    Score above 70%? Get certified

    Clear the 70% threshold and your workplace is certified as a Secure Place to Work, with a mark you can display and share.

  5. 05

    Not certified? Get a full improvement roadmap

    Falling short does not end the process. You receive a documented SOP roadmap setting out exactly what to close and in what order, so the next survey is a different conversation.

Why get certified

What certification actually changes

Beyond the mark itself, the process leaves you with records, a baseline and a plan.

Prove readiness, not intent

A certificate backed by an audited survey says something a policy document cannot.

Employees who feel safer stay

Visible investment in safety and speak-up channels is one of the clearest retention signals a workplace can send.

Audit-ready records

Training completion, drill history and incident logs held centrally and retrievable on request.

A measurable baseline

A score you can move, compare year on year, and take to the board.

A mark worth displaying

Show clients, candidates and regulators that your workplace has been independently assessed.
