about SEE
Established in Christchurch in 2012, South East Earthworks is a large excavation company with small company morals. We pride ourselves on being hard workers who complete projects to the high of standards.
All SEE drivers and machinery operators have extensive experience, enabling us to complete jobs quickly and very efficiently. This helped earn South East Earthworks our large portfolio of repair clients. We remain ambitious, with the goal of growing our company far into the future. SEE continues to be involved in the Canterbury rebuild and we assisted with firefighting during the 2017 and 2024 Port Hills fires in Christchurch.
health and safety
South East Works is comprehensively insured, fully licensed and is Site Safe Accredited. We are also SiteWise Green Accredited: this requires a ‘Green’ grading of 75% or above for our annual SiteWise assessment. To achieve this, we demonstrated we have quality health and safety systems in place.
Under the New Zealand Health and Safety at Work Act, South East Earthworks takes all reasonably practicable steps to establish and maintain safe workplaces for workers, clients and visitors. We also ensure staff are aware of their responsibilities and how to comply with our Health and Safety Policy.
Site Specific Safety Plans: We are trained and experienced in developing and working to a Site Specific Safety Plan for each project (SSSP). An SSSP is an agreement between businesses working on a site, which determines how Health and Safety will be managed, relevant site information is regularly updated and safety is monitored.
South East Earthworks is a member of Civil Contractors New Zealand (CCNZ) - as such, our commitments include making health and safety a priority, investing in ongoing training, and taking responsibility for environmental, community and social impacts.
