#OHSMS
Construction, audit, and continuous improvement of the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS). Integrates dispersed procedures into a unified mechanism built on the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle. Adapts ISO 45001 locally.
🛡️ Safety: Unpacking the System
Over 30+ years of working in HSE, I have seen a wide variety of 'assemblies' of occupational health and safety and industrial safety management systems. How is an effectively functioning mechanism of such a system structured? Let's unpack this box!
HSE Management System Audit
Implementation of an internal HSE audit system based on 12 key elements and the Bradley Curve model. Integration of audit results into the line managers' motivation system to increase safety culture maturity and reduce injuries.
Risk Management Methods Vary: Identifying and Eliminating Hazardous Production Situations
Risk management methodology through proactive identification and elimination of hazardous production situations (HPS) before they become incidents. Includes involving personnel in threat registration, maintaining a unified register, planning corrective actions, and multi-level execution control.
Internal HSE Management System Development Team
Creation of a dedicated internal team for the development of the HSE management system at a large enterprise. The practice includes integrating risk assessment into the budgeting process, using a hybrid approach with consulting at the start, and forming internal expertise from production personnel.
HSE 4.0: Effective HSE Management System through Automation and Digitalization
Implementation of a unified automated HSE information system for a company with over 30,000 employees. The system integrates directories, SAWC modules, medical exams, training, and PPE, ensuring a seamless digital employee journey and automatic assignment of activities.
HSE Management System: A Course on Worker Safety
Implementation of an original 12-element human-centric and risk-oriented HSE model. The model divides incident causes into unsafe acts (direct and indirect) and unsafe conditions (eliminable and manageable), forming protective barriers for each, including commitment development, telemedicine, root cause analysis, and personnel involvement.
Implementing a Mobile Complex for HSE Management System Assessment and Development at Russian Railways
The article examines the experience of JSCo "RZD" in improving the occupational health and safety management system and introducing active forms of worker training to reduce occupational injuries. To improve the quality of personnel training, including in remote divisions, the company uses mobile complexes — occupational health and safety railcars equipped with simulators and training programs. The material is useful for organizations using mobile tools in occupational health and safety manageme...
Operation of an Automated System for Audit Tracking and Violation Registration
Implementation of a unified web environment for automated audit tracking and violation registration (ASU NBT) with mandatory photo and video recording of corrective actions. The system is integrated with the occupational risk assessment module (EKASUTR), allowing automatic adjustment of a department's risk level based on identified violations.
LTIFR as a Tool for Managing, Assessing, and Analyzing Occupational Injuries
The article describes the LTIFR (Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate) indicator, which reflects the frequency of lost time injuries per one million hours worked. The publication provides the formula and a calculation example for this rate, used to assess the level of safety in production. The material explains how regular monitoring of LTIFR allows companies to compare injury rates, identify trends, and make informed decisions to improve working conditions.
HSE Supervising: A Key Tool for Organizing Systematic Control
Implementation of a supervising tool for systematic control of contractors on construction and investment projects. The practice includes engaging external auditors for targeted inspections, documentation audits, technical oversight of high-risk work (at heights), and training contractor workers.
T-HSE Management System in EVRAZ Operations
Transformation of the HSE management system (T-HSE MS) focusing on integrating safety into operations. Tools implemented include converting unplanned work to planned, Job Safety Analysis (JSA), specifying manager roles via KPIs, and a digital risk "Heat Map" based on Power BI.
How to Manage Risks in Maintenance Planning
As part of changing the approaches to repair work planning, the practice of ranking them into three risk categories based on company historical data and industry experience was introduced. This allowed for changes to control processes and a priority focus on the preparation and execution of the most high-risk types of work. As a result, occupational health and safety services and industrial safety services are informed of all planned work, and preventive inspections are conducted taking into acc...
