A director of Best Management Consultancy, was sentenced on 29 July 2025 to 14 months’ imprisonment, effective from 25 August 2025 for the issuance of forged bizSAFE certificates to 17 companies and other unrelated cases.
The case was made known in the WSH Bulletin on 16 October 2023 to caution companies against potential forgery of bizSAFE certificates by workplace safety and health (WSH) consultants. Since then 6 other companies have subsequently came forward to report that they have also been defrauded.
Companies are reminded to apply for bizSAFE directly through the WSH Council website, rather than rely on consultants who claim to be able to do so on their behalf to prevent similar cases from recurring in the future.

Companies are also advised to exercise judgement in the selection of such consultancy services, which are not under any form accreditation and to engage MOM-approved Auditing Organisations (AOs) directly to conduct the Risk Management Implementation Audit. Only Risk Management Audits conducted by these approved AOs are accepted for bizSAFE applications.
If you are procuring services from bizSAFE enterprises, please check bizSAFE Self-Help on our website to verify the enterprises’ bizSAFE status and expiry date.
The WSH Council urge all companies to exercise due diligence in ensuring the legitimacy of their bizSAFE certifications.
