CASE STUDY ONE
A major Global
organisation had a serious accident
at one of its sites in the UK which
subsequently involved enforcement
action being taken by the relevant
authorities. We were invited to
assist the site in the relevant
remedial work and subsequently
worked closely with the HSE.
Consequently HASMSL put together a
prioritised Action Plan to address
the relevant issues and other
matters that we had identified
needed attention. The site in
question had in recent years a poor
safety performance and when
internally audited found themselves
at the lower end of the
organisations performance table.
|
Within eighteen
months of contract commencement,
HASMSL had assisted this site to
such an extent it was then at the
‘upper end’ of the organisations
performance table.
This generated a
lot of interest at Director level
within the business, whereupon we suggested that the
organisations should have a
Corporate Policy and Standards
approach to managing health and
safety within the business.
|
 |
HASMSL suggestion was accepted by
the Group Director responsible for
Health and Safety and subsequently
over the next eighteen months,
worked with an organisational
Steering Group and an associated
Action Group to implement a Group
Safety Management System (SMS). This
was so successful that the SMS has
ultimately been made available via
the Groups Intranet, ensuring
consistency of approach and ease of
management.
