Safety Management Systems

The HSE document HSG 65 - successful Health and Safety Management states that:

"Effective health and safety policies contribute to business performance by:

1. supporting human resource development;
2. minimising the financial losses which arise from avoidable unplanned events;
3. recognising that accidents, ill health and incidents result from failings in management control and are not necessarily the fault of individual employees;
4. recognising that the development of a culture supportive of health and safety is necessary to achieve adequate control over risks;
5. ensuring a systematic approach to the identification of risks and the allocation of resources to control them;
6. supporting quality initiatives aimed at continual improvement."
