Independent WHS, ISO and compliance auditing, backed by licensed investigation expertise

Most providers do one side of this work. Paragon does both: we audit the systems that are meant to prevent harm, and we investigate what went wrong when they fail. Led by an Exemplar Global Lead Auditor and WA Licensed Factual Investigator with over 20 years of HSEQ and investigation experience.

Services


Independent auditing, investigation and WHS consulting, each backed by real-world operational experience and recognised qualifications.

ICAM & TapRoot Incident Investigation

Structured, independent root cause analysis of incidents, high-potential near misses and quality failures using ICAM and TapRoot methodologies, identifying contributing factors and organisational deficiencies, not just immediate causes, so corrective actions prevent recurrence.

Workplace & HR Investigations

Impartial, procedurally fair investigation of workplace complaints: bullying, harassment, sexual harassment, discrimination, policy and procedure breach, and misconduct. Independent, defensible and conducted to evidentiary standards that withstand scrutiny.

Why Paragon


Paragon Risk Assurance Services was established to provide Western Australian organisations with genuinely independent, practitioner-led auditing, investigation and assurance: not templated advice from generalists, but targeted capability from someone who has spent more than two decades working across safety, risk and investigation at the coalface.

Most providers do one side of this work. Paragon does both: the auditing of the management systems meant to prevent harm, and the investigation of what went wrong when they fail. That dual capability means audits are informed by how failures actually unfold in practice, and investigation findings translate into systemic fixes.
