EasyRisk is the only OHS / SWMS / crew sign-on platform purpose-built for theatre and live production. Real-time WorkSafe NSW licence verification, Federal DVS identity check, 12 theatre-specific hazard categories aligned to AS/NZS standards. SWMS in 5 minutes, not 5 hours.
Generic OHS tools were built for warehouses, construction sites, and offices. We were built for the venue you actually work in.
Crew uploads their EWP yellow card, rigging ticket, or HRWL class — we verify it real-time against SafeWork NSW. Identity is checked against the Federal DVS at sign-on. SiteDocs, iAuditor, and every generic OHS tool have zero of this.
12 hazard categories built for stage rigs: loading/unloading, lighting handling, set hanging, PA rigging, EWP <11m, pit lifts, chain motors, fly systems, patching, height work, 3-phase electrical. Each entry cited to AS/NZS standards.
HRCW screening checklist (19-item per WHS Reg 291) → spawn linked SWMS from your RA → QR sign-on poster generates automatically. The bureaucracy that nobody enjoys, finished before lunch.

On 2 July 2025, a worker died at the Council-owned Dubbo Regional Theatre. Every council CEO in Australia is now asking their PAC manager the same question. We've built a free Regional Council PAC Safety Audit Template so you can answer it methodically — drawn from the OHS Act 2004 (VIC), Model WHS Act, and AS/NZS standards.
