Safety Management System/ Plans
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act, a person conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU), which includes company directors, need to have a clear and robust strategy on how the organisation will manage health and safety at work.
Our safety consultants are experienced professionals who can assist with the establishment, development and implementation of a safety strategy and framework to suit your work environment.
A Safety Management System is an essential part of any organisation’s operational framework, not just for legal compliance, but because it can significantly improve workplace health and safety, and business viability. It should be written in a way that can be easily understood and communicated throughout the organisation. It is especially essential for medium to larger organisations with a number of tiers of leadership. Safe and Sound Solutions are your local experts in Safety Management Systems.
Why and what is the benefit of the service
Having a Safety Management System will help to reduce human injury, property and equipment damage, service interruption, and corporate / individual liability. Your system should enable all employees to clearly understand the policies and the procedures required to achieve a safe work environment for everyone. The SMS also provides clear direction and risk profile that the regulator (WorkSafe NZ) can verify.
