Introduction
This report outlines the policy in Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) for organisations. Overall, this report seeks to highlight how our organisation remains committed to ensuring a safe workplace environment for all employees for all the operations that we carry out. The approach to the OHS management will cover a wide range from legal requirements, to the specific recommendations of the industry and the involvement of the workers to establish a safe working environment where every single employee will have a strong desire to contribute to its development.
Task- 1
Occupational Health and Safety Policy
Organizational must ensure that working conditions and environments are safe and provide all employees with a healthy workplace culture regardless of employment status (full- and part-time, regular or sporadic casual, periodical sessional) and domestic or international ethnic background (Adamopoulos & Syrou et al. 2023). This has been upheld and applied to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander workers and employees to ensure that they are provided with the same safety in their working environments as the non-Indigenous workers (Adamopoulos & Syrou et al. 2023). Occupational safety is a set of rules and regulations that cover all aspects of the work environment and which must be higher than the standards of any particular field as well as include constant training and safety checks. As an example, The Woolworths Group's strategy for human resources management encapsulates central values that are designed to establish an environment in which employees are respected, valued, and supported to achieve their best.
Our Vision
To ensure that there are no workplace injuries or illnesses at all, by embracing a culture that encourages everyone to speak up against and report hazards and engage in safety and health risk reduction (Adamopoulos & Syrou et al. 2023). This is well in line with the Organisation's vision for growth in the direction of Partnership, Innovation, Inclusion, well-being and Sustainability – making the workplace safe for everyone.
Our Values
· Safety First: The conditions will be developed according to employee well-being. The conditions and actions intended for the workplace will be performed by safety and health practices (Ateeq & Ibrahim et al., 2024).
· Systems Approach: An EHS management system is developed; established; implemented; maintained and constantly improved to enhance its effectiveness and to achieve EHS management system objectives.
· Compliance and Best Practices: Policies and procedures covering all categories of the Australian OHS legislative requirements for their health and safety are developed for Queensland and South Australia respectively (Ateeq & Ibrahim et al. 2024). The highest standards are supplemented to strengthen safety performance.
· Respectful Workplace: It is further ensured that all the employees are established or psychologically comfortable in raising safety concerns and other communication (Claxton & Sharma et al. 2022).
· Shared Responsibility: It is everyone’s right to ensure his/her safety and well-being. These are the accountabilities and responsibilities that concern the safety of the management, supervisors, and employees of the company.
· Continuous Improvement: Such reviews and inspections are frequently carried out to identify potential gaps that could arise within the safety management system (Claxton & Sharma et al., 2022). Employee and stakeholder participation is a two-way process with both sending and receiving information on safety practices.
· Training and Education: It provides adequate and complete training to the employees as per their requirements for ensuring a safe work environment (Mappangile & Ramdhan et al., 2022). Continuous educational programs are important to guarantee that everyone is aware of the new policies and proper safety measures.
· Commitment to Diversity: The safety and health of a diverse workforce especially colours and non-colours are given paramount concern. The efforts to organize all employees in their work and protect them as well are being implemented.
This strategy is focused on making organisations a ‘zero harm’ workplace by reducing workplace injuries and illnesses and creating a safe and healthy working environment for everyone.
Our Commitment
The organisations are dedicated to:
· Eliminating hazards at the workplace whenever possible, instituting engineering controls at the workplace, and creating and ensuring the proper performance of safe work procedures.
· Providing continual education and learning to ensure that every worker, whether he/she operates remotely from the office or in the field, both in the United States or abroad, has the skills and information for conducting safe activities within the workplace (Mappangile & Ramdhan et al., 2022).
· Encouraging the employees to express their suspicions and assess the safety factors.
· Training workers on PPE use and the importance of PPE care when it is contaminated.
· The intervention team will be responsible for carrying out thorough investigations of all incidents and potential near-misses to identify the root causes of such occurrences and corrective measures (Neto & Ensslin et al., 2023).
· Regularly and systematically updating the OHS Management System as necessary to recognize changes to the...
