Management System – Approach

•  For the purposes of defining HSE management, safety can be defined as:The reduction of risk to level that is “As Low As is reasonably practicable”

• There are three imperatives for adopting a safety management system for a business:

There is an implied moral obligation placed on an employer to ensure that work activates and the place of work to be safe.

There are legislative requirements defined in just about every jurisdiction on how this is to be achieved.

Effective safety management (which is the reduction of risk in the workplace) can reduce the financial exposure of an organization by reducing direct and indirect costs associated with accident and Incidents.
