Meet The Team: Stefan

Hi there! I’m Stefan, and I’m a Safety Consultant here at Workplace Emergency Management. My role as a Safety Consultant is to make sure workplaces are prepared for emergencies. This includes conducting risk assessments, creating emergency response plans, and training employees on safety procedures. Essentially, I help create safe work environments so that everyone is ready if something unexpected happens.

I’ve been with Workplace Emergency Management for about 9 months now. It’s been an exciting journey, and I’ve enjoyed working with a variety of clients to improve their emergency preparedness as well as working with a great team of colleagues!

My path to emergency management really happened by chance. I was in a stage of my life where I wanted to try something different and learn new skills. I have always enjoyed training and presenting in front of groups of people, and this is what I enjoy most in this role. I’ve always had a keen interest in emergency management and thought that the opportunity to start with WEM would be a great way to learn firsthand what is required to create a safe workplace. 

What I love most about my role as a safety consultant is knowing that I can make a real difference. It’s incredibly rewarding to know that the work I do helps protect employees and potentially saves lives. Plus, I enjoy the ever-changing nature of this field – there’s always something new to learn and new challenges to tackle and new exciting places to visit!

The best safety advice I can give is to always be proactive, not reactive. This means regularly updating your emergency plans, conducting drills, and making sure everyone knows the safety procedures. Being prepared is the best way to minimise the impact of any emergency.

When I’m not working, I love spending time outdoors – playing golf, a good beach walk, or just taking a walk in nature. I’m also a big fan of reading, especially crime novels and adventure books. Cooking is another favourite pastime, and I enjoy spending quality time with family and friends.
