Risk Management Procedure
ABC Chemicals NT Risk Management Procedure
ABC Chemicals NT recognises that to ensure a safe workplace, risks must be identified, assessed and eliminated or controlled.
To achieve this there are a number of measures which will be implemented to manage all identified health and safety risks. These include:-
Setting up a well documented system for identifying, reporting and responding to actual and potential hazards
Implementing a risk management program that involves regular workplace inspections, safety audits, job safety analyses and development of safe work procedures
Consulting with workers and their representatives, managers and outside experts, to identity potential hazards, classify the risk and implement necessary control measures to eliminate or minimise the risk
Train all workers and managers on how to apply the risk management process
Risk Management is a process whereby hazards are identified in the workplace, the risks associated with of those hazards are assessed, and then control measures are implemented which will eliminate or minimise the risk of injury from the hazards which have been identified.
The Risk Management steps are:
What is the problem in the workplace which may cause injury or ill health?
How serious is the problem?
What needs to be done to solve the problem?
Put these controls in place.
Are the controls effective in eliminating or reducing the risk?
Are changes necessary?
