Healthy, safe & compliant workplaces

Health, safety, and environmental compliance is complex, and the stakes are high. Regulations vary by region, requirements evolve constantly, and getting it wrong can mean serious consequences for people and operations.

Macro's Health, Safety & Environmental (HSE) consultancy services help organisations to navigate this landscape with confidence. With more than 23 years of experience in facilities management and consultancy, we provide tailored support designed to meet your specific needs, whether that's a full audit, an embedded H&S professional, or the development of a global HSE management system. 

Our specialists act as an extension of your team, bringing clarity, expertise, and peace of mind to every project.

Why choose Macro for HSE Consultancy?

At Macro, "Do the right thing" is more than a value, it's our operating principle. We embed health, safety, and wellbeing into every aspect of what we do, ensuring our people, clients, and partners are safe, supported, and successful.

When you work with Macro, you're not getting theoretical advice. Our advice and recommendations come from programmes we've implemented ourselves. After 23 years in the FM business, our health and safety performance consistently ranks among the best in the industry.

Recognised for excellence

A culture of continuous improvement

We don't measure success solely by low injury rates. Safety, after all, isn't the absence of incidents; it's the presence of robust controls, engaged teams, and a culture of learning. That's why we focus on leading indicators: hazard reporting, near-miss analysis, inspections, corrective actions, training, and sharing lessons learned.

Our integrated wellbeing approach

We call our Health, Safety & Wellbeing approach “Full-Spectrum” because we care for every aspect of our people’s wellbeing: physical, mental, and emotional. Our network of 35+ Wellbeing Ambassadors around the world supports this vision by championing safe and healthy workplaces for all.

Smart tools for smarter compliance

Macro leverages innovative digital tools to help clients navigate complex and changing regulatory environments.

We use platforms like Enhesa for real-time regulatory intelligence and EcoOnline for QHSE management, enabling:

•   Real-time visibility of local legislation

•   Proactive identification of compliance risks

•   Data-driven decisions that reduce incidents and improve performance

•   Digital incident reporting, investigation, and near-miss tracking

•   Mobile app and QR code access for hazard reporting and inspections

•   On-the-go QHSEW inspections

We can also embed these systems within your organisation, empowering your teams to maintain compliance and build resilience independently.
