INTRODUCTION

The Occupational Health and Safety Coordinator is responsible for the development, implementation, assessment and review of a comprehensive occupational health and safety management plan. These emphasise safety in the workplace through management and staff involvement in the development of safe working practices. In practice, this involves: coordinating the implementation of the Occupational Health and Safety Management Plan; monitoring compliance with the plan; developing and maintaining the organisation’s OH&S systems by monitoring and assessing H&S strategies in accordance with changes to legislation and/or standards; and developing training programmes on health and safety issues including hazard management, accident investigation, manual handling and fire safety.
