WHS Management System

We have extensive experience ensuring that WHS Management Systems meet the nationally harmonised workplace safety laws. A key part of the harmonised laws is due diligence by senior management. As part of due diligence, it is a requirement of officers of the company to:

  • Acquire and keep up to date knowledge of work health and safety matters
  • Gain an understanding of the operations of the business and the hazards and risks involved
  • Ensure appropriate resources and processes are provided to enable hazards to be identified and risks to be eliminated or minimised
  • Ensure information regarding incidents, hazards and risks is received and the information is responded to in a timely way
  • Ensure the PCBU has, and implements, processes for complying with any legal duty or obligation
  • Ensure processes are verified, monitored and reviewed.

 

An effective WHS management system helps ensure the health and safety of your employees and leads to:

  • Effective risk management
  • Reduced injuries and illnesses
  • Compliance with legislative requirements
  • Reduce workers compensation costs
  • Improved corporate governance
  • Improved operational efficiency

 

All employers, regardless of their size or type of business, have an obligation to provide a safe working environment for employees and subcontractors. Large financial penalties apply for non-compliance under WHS legislation including possible jail sentences. Managers and Directors can be held personally liable.

Acumen's OHS Consultants can ensure that your organisation has a simple and practical OH&S system that meets legislative and due diligence requirements. We can integrate your Work Health and Safety system with any existing Quality or Environmental system. All our WHS consultants are registered WHS lead auditors
