Independent, governance-led advice—grounded in WHS practice and duty of care defensibility.
Sentinel Duty of Care Advisory supports organisations across Australia to strengthen duty of care compliance, travel risk management and WHS governance. We are built for high-stakes contexts where decisions must be both practical and defensible—particularly for mobile workforces, project travel and overseas deployment.
Reduce exposure. Protect people. Improve defensibility.
We help leaders align what is written in policy with what happens in practice—and ensure the organisation can demonstrate reasonably practicable measures under Australian WHS and duty of care expectations.

He is an experienced Work Health and Safety (WHS) professional with extensive expertise in duty of care, travel risk management, fatigue and journey management, and incident investigation within the Australian regulatory environment. Iqbal has held senior WHS and Safety & Wellbeing Partner roles across complex, high‑risk sectors including residential aged care, home and community services, manufacturing, and corporate environments. His work has involved advising executive leaders and boards on WHS governance, reasonably practicable controls, and defensible decision‑making under Australian WHS legislation. He has particular expertise in analysing incidents involving travel, lighting, environmental hazards, fatigue, and system failures. This includes preparation of independent expert reports for legal proceedings, such as a detailed expert opinion relating to a residential premises incident at Vinny Road, Edmondson Park, where issues of visibility, lighting adequacy, and duty of care were central to the assessment of negligence. Iqbal holds formal qualifications in WHS and incident investigation (including ICAM methodology) and is known for producing clear, evidence‑based reports that withstand scrutiny by insurers, legal practitioners, and courts. His advisory work focuses on aligning what organisations document in policy with what actually occurs in practice, ensuring both worker safety and legal defensibility.
