Background - What is workplace safety and health management system?

A workplace safety and health management system (or workplace health and safety management program) is a collection of policies, procedures, and plans that help to manage safety and health at work. It can also reduce the chance of injuries and illnesses from workplace operations.

A workplace safety and health management system goes beyond having policies and procedures in place. It is more about managing the safety documentation and ensuring that they are implemented in a systematic and controlled manner.

A system-based approach is more effective at protecting people from harm and meeting safety objectives than a system that relies solely on documentation. A workplace safety and health management system is essential because:

1. - It is constantly improving and evolving.
2. - Uses feedback to improve safety-related outcomes
3. - Builds on existing safety and health processes
4. - Integrates with other management systems
5. - provides for more informed decision making

AS/NZS ISO 45001 (Occupational safety and health management systems - Requirements with guidance) is the Australian standard.

This standard is designed to help organisations provide safe and healthy workplaces. It prevents work-related illness and injury, and encourages organizations to improve their safety and health performance.

AS/NZS ISO 45001 is aligned closely with other Australian standards that deal with management systems.
