The implementation process begins with a project clarification meeting, followed by a 16-step plan that includes presenting a provisional health and safety management system, conducting safety training, forming safety committees, performing risk assessments, and ensuring legal compliance.
Businesses should ensure their CEO understands their responsibilities under the OHS Act, identify and manage health and safety risks systematically, comply with reporting requirements for injuries or fatalities, investigate incidents and implement corrective actions, register with the Compensation Fund, establish a Health & Safety Committee, and be aware of the consequences of non-compliance.
