4 min read

bizSAFE Level 3 is not one fee. You pay across three stages to get there. Here is what each one costs in 2026, and how to keep the total down.

Key takeaways

  • Getting to Level 3 means clearing Levels 1 and 2 first.
  • Most SMEs spend roughly $800 to $1,700 doing it themselves.
  • The Level 3 audit fee scales with your company size and work activities.
  • ZES does it all for you from $1,888, with the official RM audit included.

What drives your price

  • Company size and headcount.
  • Number of work activities the auditor has to review.
  • How ready your paperwork is, a messy or missing RM system costs more.
  • Whether you DIY or use a consultant to avoid a failed audit.
Tip: A failed audit means paying for a re-audit. Getting the RM system right the first time is usually cheaper than the cheapest quote.

How to keep the cost down

1

Send the right people to Levels 1 and 2 so you do not repeat courses.

2

Prepare your evidence early so the audit is quick and clean.

3

Use a fixed-fee consultant so there are no surprise add-ons.

Common questions

Is bizSAFE Level 3 a yearly cost?

No. The certificate lasts 3 years. You pay again at renewal, which is mainly the audit fee.

Can I skip to Level 3 directly?

No. You must clear Level 1 and Level 2 first. Level 3 is the audited outcome of that work.

Are there grants or subsidies?

The Level 2 RM course is often SkillsFuture-claimable for the participant. Ask us what currently applies to your company.

What does the ZES package include?

Building your Risk Management plan, prepping your evidence, and the official RM audit, all-in from $1,888.
