WHF was established on a set of standards that we still hold true today, nearly 30 years later.
Exceed client expectations
Our business has been built on our ability to deliver on our commitments, by providing the very best workmanship, using only quality products, and maintaining exceptional levels of customer service.
Operate under the highest safety and environmentally efficient standards
Provide leading practice expertise
Deliver cost effective solutions
Maintain quality long term relationships with clients, suppliers and the communities we operate in
Safety comes first
For us, safety is not just about compliance with policies and procedures – it’s about the organisational culture of our employees and subcontractors.
This includes:
Shared attitudes, beliefs, customs, and systems that have been developed over time
Constant review of Safety Management plans, policies and procedures
Safety records and statistics (including corrective actions registers), which are maintained to ensure we are continuously improving our workplaces
Demonstration of safe work practices
We’re not just about words, we’re about actions. For example, during a heavy vehicle workshop project at BMC South Walker Creek Mine, our commitment to safe work practices was evident and rewarded by the client. The BMC Project Management Team presented WHF with a plaque to express their appreciation of WHF’s safety efforts throughout the project.
All of our managers, supervisors, employees and contractors contributed to this reward of recognition through demonstrating that complex tasks can be achieved in demanding workplaces, without putting workers at risk and maintaining a positive attitude and commitment to safe work practices.
Giving back
We believe that the success that we have enjoyed for over two decades is directly related to our involvement with the local communities where we operate. WHF loves getting involved with local communities by:
Supporting local sporting teams
Attending community events
Volunteering our labour
The trust and support of these communities is due to shared information, openly listening and responding to people’s concerns, and demonstrating that we care about the community and are committed to its development.
