Workplace Safety - Safety Audit
The Safety Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 requires all companies to have a Safety Statement (Safety Management System) in compliance with Section 20. The foundation of the Safety Statement lies in the identification of hazards and the assessment of risk associated with the companys activities. OHSS can develop Safety Statements for your business in compliance with this Act and improve your safety performance.
The risks to your organisation from failing to manage workplace health and safetyare significant at a time when workplace injuries are high and legislative requirements mounting. In many instances, such failures arise from lack of knowledge and systems to manage health and safety rather than deliberate actions on behalf of managers or directors.
The most effective way to manage health and safety risks is to implement an Occupational Health & Safety Management system based upon a Safety Audit. These systems give a sound foundation to the management of risk. Whether a decision is made to adopt a formalised system or not it is advisable to work towards the recognised standard of for Occupational Health & Safety Management that is OHSAS 18001.
