Workplace health and safety: prepare a review of your practices
Organise records, identify risks and prepare an action plan with the teams involved.
TEDSOM editorial team
A review of workplace health and safety begins with a clear scope: sites, activities, teams and available records. Applicable requirements must be checked for each context.
Collecting existing procedures, incident records, completed training and field observations helps prepare interviews. A missing record does not automatically establish a breach of the law.
Discussions with teams help compare documented processes with daily practice. Risks and proposed actions should be described clearly and prioritised.
An action plan identifies responsible people, resources and follow-up steps. Legal obligations and deadlines must be checked against the applicable texts with a qualified adviser.
TEDSOM can help define the scope of this review and prepare a work plan for your organisation. This methodological guidance does not replace legal advice.
