A Workplace Health & Safety (WHS) management system sets out the arrangements to assist in managing health and safety on a work site.
The intention of a WHS Management Plan is to ensure all hazards & risks associated with a worksite are identified, assessed and managed correctly as per the requirements, with control measures put in place to effectively manage this.
Regularly within operations Contractors and Sub-Contractors are involved, and circumstances can change quickly due to daily operations or worksite risks, where a WHS Management Plan will assist in managing Workplace Health & Safety.
The WHS management plan must be documented and easily understood and communicated to all those involved in the day-to-day operations (including all contractors and sub-contractors). Upon completion of this induction, all contractors and subcontractors must record and document that they understand their responsibilities within this WHS plan.
All individuals involved at the worksite who holds a duty of care, or manages any of the risks and responsibilities, must be inducted into and competent within this WHS Management Plan for compliance & safety purposes. Each Contractor or Sub-Contractor must also be made aware of the contactable individual’s details in the case of an enquiry, accident, incident or emergency.
