Introduction To OSHMS:
Since the 90s, safety and health practitioners has
initiated to promulgate and implement the OSH
management system based on system approach.
The idea of using the system approach in managing
OSH was not something new. Its initial proposal
made by Heinrich, a safety and health expert in 1930.
Heinrich’s Theory of Loss Causation explained that
the caused of accident was not due only to the
immediate causes such as unsafe act and unsafe
condition, but also by the underlying causes often
because of loss in the management control.
Heinrich The Domino Theory
INJURY

Unsafe act and mechanical hazard constitute the central factor in the accident
sequence
Multi-Causation
Behind every accident there lies many contributing
factors, causes and sub-causes.

Updated Domino Theory
This update introduced two new concepts;
• The influence of management and managerial error.
• Loss, as the result of an accident could be production losses, property damage
as well as injuries
The Development Of OSHMS
Liberalization of trade and economies
Increase in occupational accident and diseases
Traditional command – control mechanisms
inadequate
Systems approach pioneered by Edward
Demings
Development of standards by ISO.
Why OSHMS ?
Sytematic way to manage OSH activities in the
organisation
OSH as integral part of the organisation’s value
system
Reduction of hazards and risks,accidents, diseases
Low absenteeism , high productivity , job
satisfaction
WHAT IS AN OSH MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM (OSH-MS)?
General definition ;
An OSH MS is a planned, documented and verifiable method
of managing hazards and associated risks. An OSH MS can
be simple or complex, it can be highly documented or sparingly
described and it can be home grown or based on an available
model.
What is an ISO?
Layman definition;
“YOU WRITE WHAT EVER YOU DO AND YOU DO WHAT
EVER YOUR WRITE”
WHAT IS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM?
( ISO Standard definition)
ISO 14001:1996
The part of the overall management system that includes organisational structure,
planning activities, responsibilities, practices, procedures, processes, and resources
for developing, implementing, achieving, reviewing and maintaining the
environmental policy
OHSAS 18001:1999
Part of the overall management system that facilitates the management of the OH&S
risks associated with the business of the organisation. This includes organisational
structure, planning activities, responsibilities, practices, procedures, processes, and
resources for developing, implementing, achieving, reviewing and maintaining the
organisation’s OH&S policy.

Planning and Implementation
 Hazard prevention
 Management of change

The impact on OSH of internal changes (such as those in staffing or due
to new processes, working procedures, organizational structures or
acquisitions) and of external changes (for example, as a result of
amendments of national laws and regulations, organizational mergers,
and developments in OSH knowledge and technology) should be
evaluated and appropriate preventive steps taken prior to the
introduction of changes.

A workplace hazard identification and risk assessment should be carried
out before any modification or introduction of new work methods,
materials, processes or machinery. Such assessment should be done in
consultation with and involving workers and their representatives, and
the safety and health committee, where appropriate.

The implementation of a "decision to change" should ensure that all
affected members of the organization are properly informed and trained.
Planning and Implementation
 Hazard prevention
 Emergency prevention, preparedness and response
Emergency prevention, preparedness and response arrangements should be established
and maintained. These arrangements should identify the potential for accidents and
emergency situations, and address the prevention of OSH risks associated with them.
The arrangements should be made according to the size and nature of activity of the
organization.
They should:
(a) ensure that the necessary information, internal communication and coordination are provided to
protect all people in the event of an emergency at the worksite
(b) provide information to, and communication with, the relevant competent authorities, and the
neighborhood and emergency response services

Evaluation
 Performance monitoring and measurement
 Procedures to monitor, measure and record OSH
performance on a regular basis should be developed,
established and periodically reviewed. Responsibility,
accountability and authority for monitoring at
different levels in the management structure should
be allocated.
 The selection of performance indicators should be
according to the size and nature of activity of the
organization and the OSH objectives.
Evaluation
 Performance monitoring and measurement
Both qualitative and quantitative measures appropriate to
the needs of the organization should be considered.
These should:
(a) be based on the organization's identified hazards and risks,
the commitments in the OSH policy and the OSH objectives
(b) support the organization's evaluation process, including the
management review.
Evaluation

Investigation of work-related injuries, ill health, diseases and incidents, and their impact on safety
and health performance
 The investigation of the origin and underlying causes of work-related injuries, ill health, diseases
and incidents should identify any failures in the OSH management system and should be
documented.

Such investigations should be carried out by competent persons, with the appropriate
participation of workers and their representatives.

The results of such investigations should be communicated to the safety and health committee,
where it exists, and the committee should make appropriate recommendations.

The results of investigations, in addition to any recommendations from the safety and health
committee, should be communicated to appropriate persons for corrective action, included in
the management review and considered for continual improvement activities.

The corrective action resulting from such investigations should be implemented in order to avoid
repetition of work-related injuries, ill health, diseases and incidents.

Reports produced by external investigative agencies, such as inspectorates and social insurance
institutions, should be acted upon in the same manner as internal investigations, taking into
account issues of confidentiality.
Evaluation
 Audit
 Arrangements to conduct periodic audits are to be
established in order to determine whether the OSH
management system and its elements are in place,
adequate, and effective in protecting the safety and
health of workers and preventing incidents.
 An audit policy and program should be developed,
which includes a designation of auditor competency, the
audit scope, the frequency of audits, audit methodology
and reporting.
 The audit includes an evaluation of the organization's
OSH management system elements or a subset of these,
as appropriate.

Evaluation
 Audit
 Audits should be conducted by competent persons
internal or external to the organization who are
independent of the activity being audited.
 The audit results and audit conclusions should be
communicated to those responsible for corrective
action.
 Consultation on selection of the auditor and all stages of
the workplace audit, including analysis of results, are
subject to worker participation, as appropriate.
Evaluation
 Management Review
Management reviews should:
(a) evaluate the overall strategy of the OSH management system to determine whether it meets
planned performance objectives
(b) evaluate the OSH management system's ability to meet the overall needs of the organization
and its stakeholders, including its workers and the regulatory authorities
(c) evaluate the need for changes to the OSH management system, including OSH policy and
objectives
(d) identify what action is necessary to remedy any deficiencies in a timely manner, including
adaptations of other aspects of the organization's management structure and performance
measurement
(e) provide the feedback direction, including the determination of priorities, for meaningful
planning and continual improvement
(f) evaluate progress towards the organization's OSH objectives and corrective action activities
(g) evaluate the effectiveness of follow-up actions from earlier management reviews.
Action for Improvement
 Preventive and corrective action
 Arrangements should be established and maintained for preventive and
corrective action resulting from OSH management system performance
monitoring and measurement, OSH management system audits and
management reviews. These arrangements should include:
(a) identifying and analyzing the root causes of any non-conformities with relevant
OSH regulations and/or OSH management systems arrangements
(b) initiating, planning, implementing, checking the effectiveness of and
documenting corrective and preventive action, including changes to the OSH
management system itself.
 When the evaluation of the OSH management system or other sources
show that preventive and protective measures for hazards and risks are
inadequate or likely to become inadequate, the measures should be
addressed according to the recognized hierarchy of prevention and control
measures, and completed and documented, as appropriate and in a timely
manner.
Action for Improvement
 Continual improvement

Arrangements should be established and maintained for the continual improvement of the
relevant elements of the OSH management system and the system as a whole. These
arrangements should take into account:
(a) the OSH objectives of the organization
(b) the results of hazard and risk identifications and assessments
(c) the results of performance monitoring and measurements
(d) the investigation of work-related injuries, diseases, ill health and incidents, and the results and
recommendations of audits
(e) the outcomes of the management review
(f ) the recommendations for improvement from all members of the organization, including the safety and
health committee, where it exists
(g) changes in national laws and regulations, voluntary program and collective agreements
(h) new relevant information
