Chandler Macleod
April 1, 2019

As part of Chandler Macleod’s RAP commitments to integrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Businesses into our supply chain we will be utilising Spartan First’s services to ensure our candidates are fit for work.


Spartan First is a new full-service, majority Indigenous Australian owned and operated occupational healthcare company. They operate with full respect to the traditions and cultures of Indigenous Australian people by providing services to both corporate partner networks and Government healthcare bodies. Spartan First is a partnership formed by two privately owned organisations, Spartan Occupational Health Services and Spartan First.


Going forward, Spartan First will be completing pre-employment medicals for Chandler Macleod candidates.


Our Industrial team will pilot the Spartan First partnership, with our Mining and Construction candidates to follow given the ongoing successful partnership.



Amanda Clarke, GM at Spartan First has stated, “Spartan First are very excited to be partnering with Chandler Macleod for their occupational health requirements. Through this partnership it allows us, as a new start-up Indigenous occupational health provider, the exposure to demonstrate not only to Chandler Macleod, but also their clients that our commitment to quality assessments and communication does not waiver or alter at any time. Our vision and values are such that we are committed to supporting all clients and candidates which come through our clinic.”

Some connections are obvious, while others are less visible. By recognising these links, we can actively contribute to a safer work environment and reinforce our commitment to quality and safety.

We assess job risks and ensure you're paid correctly based on your assigned role. Any changes must be communicated so we can keep safety protocols up to date and ensure your well-being. Talking openly about safety—whether in meetings, training sessions, or daily conversations—helps strengthen our collective safety culture. Empowering Our People Every worker has the power to make the workplace safer. If you see a risk or experience a role change affecting safety, you must report it. Taking action early prevents hazards from turning into incidents. As Safety Leaders, we look out for each other and foster a culture where everyone feels empowered to speak up. Understanding your role, communicating changes, and embracing our shared responsibility for safety are key to maintaining a safe workplace. By staying informed, engaging in safety discussions, and supporting one another, we can build a culture of safety together.  Always remember: We are all Safety Leaders!
