About

Construction health and safety, without the corporate overhead

Rules Health and Safety is an owner-led practice founded by Lesley Muller to give South African construction contractors a straightforward, hands-on partner for safety files and OHS compliance.

We started Rules Health and Safety because too many contractors were dealing with health and safety the wrong way — either treating the safety file as a box-ticking exercise or getting buried in paperwork that never made anyone safer on site.

Our specialisation is safety file creation and maintenance for the South African construction industry: general contractors, civils, fit-out teams, industrial contractors and sub-contractors. We build the file to the principal contractor's spec, keep it maintained for the duration of your project, and stand behind it through inspections and audits.

Built to become one of South Africa's most trusted construction health and safety partners — one properly supported project at a time.

What we stand for

  • Construction-only focus

    We work exclusively with the construction industry — so we know the specs, the regs and what site clients actually accept.

  • Owner-led

    You deal with Lesley Muller directly. No hand-offs, no account managers, no delays.

  • Files that hold up

    Safety files built to satisfy real principal contractors, DoEL inspectors and Construction Regulations 2014.

  • Responsive by default

    We reply, we show up, and we close the loop — because construction projects don't wait.
