2.3. You will be supported by a team member or representative from Safety Made Simple with the required knowledge, skills, and experience for the work performed. This means that any work requiring subject matter expertise in WHS will be performed by a suitably qualified and/or experienced Work Health and Safety Professional.

Safety Made Simple can support you outside of this, however, Safety Made Simple reserves the right to invoice you for reimbursement of any associated expenses outside the scope of our packages below – see Reimbursement of Expenses clause below.
3.2. You are entitled to support as outlined in these terms and conditions. The following list is indicative of services which may be provided.
3.3. If you select our Safety Leader package, we will work with you to establish your specific strategic objectives, and tailor our support services accordingly.
3.4. Our packages are for a minimum term of six (6) months. If you commit to any of our packages for twelve (12) months, you will receive a one-month discount, reducing your monthly fee.
3.5. After the initial twelve (12) month term:
(a) this agreement and our services will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis; and
(b) you may cancel our services at any time upon fourteen (14) days written notice.
3.6. If you are eligible for the discounted fee, you will be entitled to remain on the discounted rate after the initial twelve (12) month period for each successive term that your subscription remains active, unless notified otherwise by us.
3.7. The hours of support per month are dependent on the package you choose. For example, if you select our Safety Leader Package, you are entitled to one hundred and twenty (120) hours of support annually (ten (10) hours of support per month) unless Safety Made Simple has applied a prior work discount, in which case Safety Made Simple will reduce your entitled hours as per the agreement made in writing.
3.8. To support you in understanding and managing work health and safety obligations, Safety Made Simple must complete a comprehensive review and upgrade of your current systems. Depending on the quality and effectiveness of your current systems, initially a significant portion of the package hours may be used to design and deliver foundational system policies, procedures and tools. Safety Made Simple will work with you to plan this work within your package. If agreed between us, in writing, you may use hours from a future month (“borrowed hours”) to support establishing baseline WHS systems or delivery of WHS projects, provided you have sufficient hours left within your subscription period to support the arrangement.
3.9. If you have unused support hours in the month, they will not be credited to future months unless it is by prior agreement between us in writing. For example, while not obliged to do so, we may agree to hold any unused hours from a previous month for a planned future project.
3.10. If you have committed to one of our subscription packages, you are entitled to unlimited edits or adjustments within your selected package, with delivery hours deducted from your monthly support hours entitlement.
3.11. If you are receiving custom services, or you are no longer under an active subscription package, you agree that:
(a) We allow unlimited edits or adjustments to your plan provided those changes together with any supporting documents and information are requested within ten (10) days of the date of delivery of the draft to be changed;
(b) You will send us your edits in one communication wherever possible, to assist us in completing your work in a timely manner;
(c) Editing means an opportunity to adjust parts of the created work product and does not mean starting again or from scratch, or re-designing, upgrading, or making substantial changes; and
(d) Where substantial changes are requested, we may elect to invoice you for additional work done outside of the scope of our agreed services to you.
3.12. If you book a time to meet with Safety Made Simple within your WHS Support Package and fail to attend at the scheduled time without giving at least four (4) hours' notice, you will not receive credit for the missed appointment.
3.13. We also offer WHS Risk Review, and WHS support for role coverage as a stand-alone service through the following packages.
3.14. If you elect to enrol in our WHS Safety Leader Package for twelve (12) months within one (1) month of your WHS Risk Review, we will reduce the hours of your package and subtract the cost of your initial investment, along with the hours used, from your annual subscription hours and fees.
3.15. Safety Made Simple may also offer custom service packages tailored to your specified needs and requirements, outside the WHS Support and WHS Risk Review Packages. For custom packages and services, we will provide you a written quote detailing the services included and the investment required.
