Step 4 - Put controls in place

You need to develop a plan for improving controls. This needs to include time frames and responsibilities. It may involve a staged approach to improving controls. Maintenance of controls also needs to be included at this stage.

It is important to ensure that work procedures are changed or developed and implemented to include new or changed controls. Plans for new or changed controls need to be communicated throughout your organisation. Training, instruction and supervision should be provided.

Then controls need to be put in place. It is important that supervision is effective particularly when any changes are being made. The degree of supervision needs to be in keeping with the seriousness of the risk that you have previously assessed.

For more information on putting control measures in place refer to Section 5 of Supplement 3 of the Risk Management Code of Practice 2007.
