Our Story
Since 1994, Safemap International has been at the forefront of reshaping safety thinking and practice. What began as a pioneering provider of competency-based training for mining, processing, and manufacturing industries has grown into a global consulting and advisory partner for organizations operating in high-risk environments. We are one of the earliest exponents of the ‘New View’ in safety, based on the work of Edward Deming, James Reason, Rasmussen and Pidgeon.
In 2016, we expanded our capabilities with the creation of Riskmap International, a sister company dedicated to advanced risk management solutions. Together, Safemap and Riskmap offer a unique combination: expertise in the human and cultural dimensions of safety and the technical, systems-based side of risk management.
