Completion requirements
View

The plan is intended to minimize loss and meet regulatory compliance requirements. We will strive to continually improve the effectiveness of health and safety. The Safety Plan will be communicated to the workforce through their safety representatives, and proof thereof should be available in the company HSE System. Personnel and visitors shall undergo induction training carried out at the site.

The plan must include the documented specifications of all health and safety requirements pertaining to the associated work(s) on a construction site.

There are some key workplace health and safety areas which must form an integral part of the workplace health and safety plan:

  • Safe Manual Handling
  • First Aid
  • Emergency Procedures
  • Evacuation Procedures
  • Handling Dangerous Goods
  • Hazard Identification,
  • Stress Management
  • Reporting Procedures

Effective health and safety management systems result from management leadership and commitment. Everyone has a duty to work safely and report hazards.

What a health and safety plan seek to achieve:

  • Systematically manage health and safety in the workplace.
  • Include staff in developing workplace health, safety and environment measures.
  • Maintain an accident and incident register.
  • Identify hazards then eliminate, isolate, or minimize them.
