The management of every work place in all industries has the same general responsibilties
and duties under occupational health and safety and environmental legislation.
However, each workplace has its own special combination of hazards, risks, processes,
people, location and circumstances which means that no two places are exactly the
same.
A thorough analysis to identify all the relevant issues focuses on
- the regulatory requirements which provide for a minimum level of performance;
- the best practice solutions which not only provide for meeting regulatory
requirements but also provide smart solutions which improve productivity and
sustainability, and
- the existence and effectiveness of management systems
A review of the relevant aspects of a company's operations can identify what are the
significant issues for the company, and what is required to manage these in a proactive
and strategic way.
Generally one or two day's on-site work will enable a report to be prepared
outlining-
- regulatory
requirements
- management system(s)
- oh&s performance
- environmental issues
- risks
- recommendations and action plan to address the identified issues.
