Appendices
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.
