What Implementing Safety Management Systems Entails

Jaric ESH utilising the BS-OHSAS 18001 international guidelines for safety management systems will provide your company with a framework though which its safety and health performance can be monitored, improved and controlled. We will conduct a risk assessment of your company's activities, products, processes and services. Our process involves ensuring the company is on the right track by putting into place written procedures to control activities with high risk to the safety of employees or other personnel, as well as there will be periodic auditing of the system to ensure effective operation. A basic safety management system has some of the following characteristics:

• Existence of a health and safety policy that is communicated to staff
• Management commitment
• Allocation of responsibilities and accountability for health and safety matters
• Controls for suppliers and subcontractors
• Health and safety consultation
• Hazard identification, evaluation and control
• Provision of information and training of staff
• Incident recording, investigation, analysis and review
• Measuring and evaluating workplace health and safety performance.
• Other related services cover: BS-OHSAS 18001 gap audit; risk assessment; compliance audits and awareness training.

Benefits of Implementing Safety Management Systems

Having an effective safety management program makes all the difference in preventing injuries and illnesses in the workplace. With an effective plan the result is lower accident rates, less spending on accident-related costs. You also have other benefits that include reduced absenteeism, lower turnover rate, higher productivity, and improved employee morale.

What the Audit Entails

The Safety Management System audit will adequately address and reflect you corporation's goals. The audit process includes meetings with management and key personnel with responsibility for health and safety to outline the audit process, as well as a tour the facilities, a document review and observation of the processes and practices, interviews with staff and a written report of findings and recommendations.

The amount of resources and time required to conduct a management systems audit can be substantial and many organizations system require an assessment at least on an annual basis. Jaric ESH provides trained personnel to conduct these audits.

Benefits of the Safety Management System Audit

Jaric ESH works with you to identify the level of implementation or conformance with your Safety Management System and opportunities for improvement. The audit identifies areas where an organization meets the requirements of the BS-OHSAS 18001 standard and areas where the safety management system must be supplemented. With ongoing improvement in these programs, your company will better manage risk, increase productivity, and meet compliance goals and initiatives.
