To establish a common and systematic approach for the
effective management of workplace health hazards.
To perform risk assessments of occupational health hazards
within all of our work sites.
To manage and control potential health exposures and risks.
To implement effective health surveillance programmes
To ensure all workers are aware of and protected from
exposures to occupational health hazards and .
To prevent workplace injury and illness.
I. Why have a standard?

II. Expectation 1 Review the
Standard
a. All sites shall review and
implement the Standard
b. Perform a gap analysis
c. Complete site-specific risk
assessments
d. Implement corrective
action plan using the
hierarchy of controls

a. All sites to review andimplement the Standard
b. Perform a gap analysis
c. Complete site-specific risk
assessments
d. Implement corrective
action plan using the
hierarchy of controls
II. Expectation 2 Perform a gap analysis
Team assemble a review teamof managers and employees to
complete the gap analysis.
Analysis compare existing site
procedures with each Section of
the Standard.
Gaps identify weak points and
develop an improvement plan.
Actions prioritize findings,
identify responsible persons, and
set a timeline to close the gaps.

hierarchy of controls
II. Expectation 3 Risk Assessment
Team assemble risk
assessment team & team leader
consisting of managers and
employees.
Train provide basic risk
assessment training to each
participant.
Evaluate perform site risk
assessment.
Record document findings on
the risk assessment form.
Action develop a corrective
action plan.

Elimination If you eliminate a hazard youcompletely eliminate the associated
risk.
Eliminate
the task
Substitution You can substitute something else (asubstance or a process) that has less
potential to cause injury.
Select
safer
chemicals
Isolation You can isolate the worker from thehazard.
Noise
Control
Enclosure
Engineering You can make a structural change tothe process or equipment to interrupt
the path between the worker and the
risk.
Guarding
Administrative You may can reduce risk byupgrading training, SOPs, worker
rotation or other administrative
actions.
Rules +

Personal
Protective
Equipment
When higher level controls are not
feasible or do not provide sufficient
protection, PPE may be prescribed to
provide supplementary protection.

IV. Requirements
Risk is the chance (high, moderate, low) that someone could be
harmed by a hazard.
The Standard requires that corrective action plans are
prioritised according to the risk rating as determined by the
risk assessment process.
