Your bizSAFE Level 3 certificate is valid for 3 years from your last RM audit. The expiry date is on your certificate and in the bizSAFE portal. To renew, you pass a fresh RM audit before that date. It is a re-audit, not a form.

Renew in 6 steps

  1. 01Check your expiry date.

    Check the expiry date on your certificate and in the bizSAFE portal.

  2. 02Update your Risk Management Plan

    Update your Risk Management Plan so it matches what your company does today.

  3. 03Pull your evidence:

    Update toolbox records, safe work procedures and corrective actions.

  4. 04Book an MOM-approved bizSAFE auditor

    Book an MOM-approved bizSAFE auditor for the renewal audit.

  5. 05Close any issues

    Close any issues the auditor flags.

  6. 06Pass

    Pass the renewal audit, and you are renewed for another 3 years.

Tip: The top reason companies lapse is leaving it too late. Set a reminder 3 months before expiry.

What it costs

Our bizSAFE Level 3 renewal package starts from $1,888 with the RM audit included and covers the Risk Management work needed to prepare your business for the audit.

  • Your fee depends on site count, headcount, work activities and the state of your current system.
  • A tidy, up-to-date system is cheaper to renew. See the bizSAFE Level 3 cost breakdown.
  • Returning ZES clients get a special renewal rate.
  • Start 2 to 3 months before expiry.

What if it expires?

You lose your bizSAFE Level 3 listing. A lapse may affect opportunities that require a current certificate. Tell us your expiry date and we can explain the renewal steps. See what to do if your bizSAFE has expired or you failed the audit.

Common questions

How often do I renew bizSAFE Level 3?

Every 3 years, by passing a renewal RM audit before the certificate expires.

Do I redo the Level 2 RM course?

No. The RM course is the Level 2 step. Renewal is a re-audit of your system, not the course again.

Can I renew after it has expired?

Sometimes, but a lapse can mean restarting parts of the process and losing certified status meanwhile. Renew before expiry.

Who can audit my renewal?

Only an MOM-approved bizSAFE auditing organisation.
