HISTORY
The implementation and maintenance of Occupational Health and Safety systems were privatized in 1993.
Prior to this date the governing body was subsidized by the State and the only organization which could audit and allocate ratings to companies in terms of the percentage compliance with legislation.
In May 1993 Mr Colin Jones, a previous deputy Chief Inspector of the Department of Labour and Mr J J Strydom, a Health and Safety consultant with 25 years practical experience in the field, established the company called Technilaw South Africa.
The documentation was designed to be user friendly and in contrast with other similar enterprises could be
maintained by the employees themselves and a permanent Health and Safety Officer was not needed to maintain it. The training material was registered with the Department of Education and a FET (Further Education and Training) facility registered.
The Department of Labour approved Technilaw as a Service Provider and copy right on all documentation was registered.
The system documentation is based on practical experience in the field and is therefore “hands on”, easy to
maintain, minimum paperwork and legal compliance only.
Technilaw is actively involved in assisting both corporate companies and smaller enterprises with their legal requirements for Occupational Health and Safety for 20 years.
