Appendix 1: Scenario – Australian
Hardware
You are a WHS consultant. You have been contracted by Australian
Hardware to design and implement a WHS management system for the
organisation.
You have developed and implemented your WHS risk management policy
and procedures in consultation with workers and their representatives.
After successfully piloting the program at the Wollongong Store, you
have implemented the program nationwide.
The main needs of Australian Hardware with respect to the proposed
system, are:
●
legal compliance across jurisdictions
●
safest possible workplace conditions for workers
○
objective: bring LTIFR and Injury Rate (IR) to 10% below
national averages (Last year LTIFR = 13.9; IR = 2.0)
●
integration with all other Australian Hardware management
systems, operations and corporate culture
●
advertise and demonstrate Australian Hardware commitment to
WHS.
It is now the end of the first year of implementation and you have data
to determine the success of the program.
You will need to analyse the data, plan improvements to the system, and
plan any required training/induction.
