SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Is your Safety Management System a mountain of policies and procedures stacked away collecting dust?

 

If this is the case then these documents are not worth the paper they are written on. A Safety Management System must be managed correctly for it to be effective.

 

The system must be clear, organised and as a minimum comply with relevant legislation.

 

HR Experts will work with your business to ensure the system is clear and states the specifics such as training, supervision, risk management, incident/injury management, record keeping, review and improvement processes.

RISK MANAGEMENT

Are you auditing your business on a regular basis?

 

Risk management involves three important steps; identifying risks, assessing risks and controlling risks. In order to manage risk one must be aware of all potential risks in general.
