About Prasad Hawaldar

Sometimes safety isn\'t just about systems, it\'s about foresight, discipline, and cultural shift. I specialize in building health, safety, environment, and fire (HSEF) systems that reduce risk across industrial, infrastructure, and operations-intensive sectors. My work spans policy formulation, compliance execution, and operational integration across complex sites and multi-region footprints.My core strengths include developing ISO 45001 (Occupational Health & Safety Management System) and ISO 14001 (Environmental Management System) compliant frameworks, guiding audits, and aligning site safety operations with the National Building Code (NBC), The Building and Other Construction Workers (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 1996 [BOCW (RE & CS) Act, 1996], and warehousing regulations.Beyond systems and checklists, I promote safety culture through 5S implementation, Gemba walks, and behaviour-based safety (BBS) programs.
