Reporting of outcomes
After completing the audit, the accredited auditor will forward a draft report and summary to the Department of Employment and Industrial Relations. In addition to the level achieved, the report will indicate any areas of the management system falling short if the minimum standard of 70 percent has not been reached. The auditor will be required to indicate options for addressing the identified deficiencies, and the self-insurer will need to develop a plan based on the auditor’s recommendations.
The self-insurer will need to provide evidence of how they intend to rectify the deficiencies identified by the auditor, and how they will move towards achieving outcomes that meet the minimum score required, within a timeframe acceptable to the Department of Employment and Industrial Relations. Such arrangements are subject to confirmation by the accredited auditor at the applicant's expense.
A final report detailing the level of workplace health and safety performance attained in both stage 1 and 2 is then forwarded to Q-COMP for consideration. Upon completion of the report an account for the preparation of this report will be forwarded to the self-insurer. The fee for this report is prescribed in Schedule 1 of the Workplace Health and Safety Regulation 2008 .
