Work Health and Safety Risk Management
Managing hazards at work
Sound safety risk management involves undertaking risk assessment for operations in a manner that provides effective hazard management, meets legislated requirements and provides clear documented evidence of considered thought in managing work hazards. To achieve this risk management must incorporate the following elements:
- consultation with operational workers
- use of relevant methods to identify hazards
- compliance with regulatory requirements
- consideration of safety guidance material and common industry standards
- maintenance of up to date valid risk management documents
Safety risk registers (a log of work hazards and their associated controls) and documented risk assessments (assessment of hazards associated with a particular operation) are the most common and effective methods used to comply with risk management requirements.
