On-site harness inspection across Auckland
Your safety equipment, compliant at all times.
We inspect your height safety equipment, PPE, temporary anchor points, ladders, portable scaffolds, eye wash stations and spill kits to New Zealand legal requirements, then track every item in an automated online asset register so equipment remains compliant and in good working order at all times.
The problem
Non-compliant equipment is more common than most sites realise
We see many work sites with non-compliant equipment and missed inspections — yet some of these inspections are a legal requirement under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015.
We solve this for you with an automated online asset register that allows us to keep your equipment compliant at all times. That avoids problems with the regulator, which is a costly mistake to make. More importantly, it means that if an incident does occur, your safety equipment functions exactly as it should — so everyone gets home safely.
Many businesses responsible for buildings with these systems “are not aware of these requirements”. WorkSafe New Zealand — safety alert on anchorage systemsRead the working at height compliance guide →
Inspection & certification
What we inspect
Led by a holder of NZQA Unit Standard 19359, we inspect to New Zealand legal requirements, tag every item with its re-inspect date, and issue a compliance certificate.
Height safety equipment and PPE
Harnesses, lanyards, inertia reels and connectors, inspected to AS/NZS 1891.4.
Temporary anchor points
Inspection of temporary anchor points, a WorkSafe requirement most PCBUs don’t know they hold.
Emergency showers and eye wash stations
Inspected against AS 4775:2007, so they work when they’re actually needed.
Ladders
Inspected and tagged with a re-inspect date, so they don’t quietly fall out of compliance.
Portable scaffolds
Inspection and tagging for mobile/portable scaffold systems.
Eye wash & spill kits
Inspection, servicing and refilling.
The difference
An automated register that keeps you compliant
We use a platform called Scannable. Every item we inspect is tracked in it, and we keep the records so you don’t have to.
Centralise records
Track all your equipment in one secure location.
Automate compliance
Reminders sent before inspections expire.
Access documentation
Instantly download digital inspection results and compliance reports.
Audit readiness
Maintain an up to date compliance record at all times.
Supply & repair
A failed inspection never leaves you short
We provide a complete solution by supplying and repairing height safety equipment, refilling spill kits, and replacing damaged or expired equipment as required.

Three Steps with Fern Group
We come to your site and inspect
Height safety equipment, PPE, anchor points, ladders, portable scaffolds, eye wash stations and spill kits — all checked on site. Nothing leaves your site, so your equipment is out of action for as little time as possible.
Tagged, registered, certified
Every compliant item is tagged with its re-inspect date, added to your Scannable asset register, and a compliance certificate is generated against it.
We keep you equipped and current
Automatic reminders handle the next inspection date. Anything faulty or past its service life comes off the register, and we repair or supply a replacement.
Our promise
We take safety compliance off your plate.
We track, inspect and document every ladder, harness, eye wash station and spill kit on your site. Your facility stays audit-ready and legally compliant, so you never have to worry about missed inspections, non-compliant equipment or regulatory fines.
Solution based
If a ladder fails, a harness expires, or a spill kit is found empty, we don’t just leave you with a failed report and a problem. We flag it instantly, provide a clear remedy, and can restock or source replacements immediately to keep your site moving.
Loyalty
We never take your loyalty for granted. We keep your business by turning up, communicating clearly and doing the job properly.
Why clients stay

Exceptional service
We simplify compliance. Rather than just handing over a certificate, we identify issues, communicate requirements clearly, and maintain accurate records to ensure you stay ahead of upcoming inspections.
Exceeding expectations
We look beyond the immediate task. If our team is on site and notices an issue with storage of gear or non-compliant equipment, we’ll flag it and provide recommendations.
Lasting relationships
We act as a reliable partner for inspections, repairs and replacements. By consistently showing up and communicating effectively, we make your job easier.
