SMEs want to be sure they understand the WH&S legislation and what they need to do, without getting bogged down. This workshop will lead you through the steps you need to take to build your own systematic approach to safety management.

This one day program looks at:

• The background to the WHS legislation for South Australia and nationally and how to go about implementing the essential elements of the legislation
• What is a Safety Management System and why do you need one
• How it might look for your small business
• Pragmatic approaches for developing your own
• Identifying what tasks/activities are conducted within your business and what WHS risks are triggered as a result
• Commence development/population of your own risk register in class (template provided). Take away a first draft
• WH&S records you need to keep. Standard tools and templates will be discussed, provided and adapted for incident reporting, hazard reporting, Safety Action plan, risk assessment

On-Site Review and Report:

An optional two hour review and mentoring for each business attending is included in the price of the program. This allows you to have time to digest the training, then work with the trainer to apply the learnings from the course. Where and how to start is always the overwhelming part, but with this on-site support and assistance you will be better equipped to put your training into action.

A standard report will be produced for each business – this will be populated during the on-site review.

Work, Health and Safety Manual:

Choose this option and you will be provided with Work Health & Safety Manual branded for your company, which can be tailored and populated to form the basis of your documented Safety Management System.

Note: Manual may need additions to be compliant in other states / nationally.
