Stage 2 - Audit of management systems
Assessment of aspects of the applicant's health and safety management systems is undertaken by audit against the following 10 elements:
- Health and Safety Policy Communication
- Allocation of Responsibility and Accountability
- Suppliers Sub-Contractors and Purchasing controls
- Health and safety Consultation
- Hazard Identification Evaluation and Control
- Provision of Information
- Training
- Workplace Specific Issues
- Reporting and Investigation
- Emergency Planning
The audit process undertaken measures the likely capacity of existing management systems to minimise the risks to health and safety and the flow on effect to workers' compensation claims.
The audit in no way prescribes the form or type of management system to be employed by the applicant organisation.
