Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Management Systems focus on protecting the workforce's safety and health.
All employers have the responsibility to protect the safety and health of their employees at the workplace. Mandated by the Occupational Safety and Health Act(OSHA) of 1970, employers with a moral responsibility benefit from greater employee loyalty and total employee involvement. They can avoid losses due to compensations and litigation such as injuries or death in the workplace, loss due to lost working hours and days, and prevent added costs from recruitment and training in case of mishaps.
OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration), a division under the United States Department of Labor helps employers avoid these unwanted scenarios by being focused on protecting the workforce’s safety and health while also providing training, outreach, education, and assistance to employers. OSHA has jurisdiction over approximately 8 million employers and 130 million workers, and only has about 2,000 inspectors.
Over the years, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has been reiterating the importance of continuous improvement (CI) and proactive…

Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) management systems help companies and organizations automate and digitize health and safety-related workflows. OHS includes health and safety policies, systems, standards, and records, and includes incorporating health and safety activities and programs into key business processes. OSHA makes it necessary to have an effective occupational safety and health administration management system that improves the ability to identify hazards and control risks at the workplace continuously.
OSHA recommends and enforces guidelines for employers to implement and enhance the safety culture of their organizations. By aligning with OSHA, businesses can:
To ensure your organization has an ingrained culture of health and safety and follows the occupational health and safety administration requirements mandated, OSHA recommends the following practices:
Make safety and health a priority while communicating with employees. Explain the OSHA safety practices implemented, and proactively fix any hazards that could threaten workplace safety.
Lead by example by making safety an essential part of the daily conversation.
Implement a diligent reporting system to report any incidents (including near misses/close calls), illnesses, injuries, hazards, or safety and health concerns, anonymously, if required that can be revised for OSHA audits.
Conduct training programs for workers using OSHA tools to identify and control hazards.
Practice internal inspection using OSHA-recommended checklists to inspect the workplace internally. Also make it a point to survey the workers regarding equipment or material functioning.
Prepare a guidebook for hazard control by interviewing workers. Use their suggestions to improve and protect the workplace from any hazards.
Delegate hazard control implementation by using a collaborative OSHA health and safety management system.
Create contingency plans and develop instructions on foreseeable emergency scenarios. Conduct periodic drills to review the plan.
Consult with workers on key areas of risk, including review of new equipment or material with workers to better identify potential issues related to safety or health.
Identify and improvise safety and health issues in meetings or discussions.
OSHA standards include requirements for employers to do the following:
provide fall protection
prevent trenching cave-ins
prevent exposure to some infectious diseases
ensure the safety of workers who enter confined spaces
prevent exposure to harmful chemicals
put guards on dangerous machines
provide respirators or other safety equipment
provide training for certain dangerous jobs in a language and vocabulary workers can understand
The OSH Act covers all private-sector employers and their employees in the 50 states and all territories and jurisdictions under federal authority. Those jurisdictions include the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Johnston Island, the Canal Zone, and the Outer Continental Shelf Lands as defined in the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act.
From a business perspective, following OSHA Guidelines and implementing a collaborative and scalable health and safety management system is beneficial. Automation and digital transformation are the keys to building a seamless, scalable process to ensure enterprise-wide safety. Often, an investment in a health and safety management system to meet OSHA guidelines and requirements will pay for itself in no time. OSHA helps a company adopt a proactive approach to safety requirements. Health and safety risks can turn out to be extremely expensive and businesses must take all steps necessary to meet OSHA requirements.
An efficient health & safety management system combines all the different elements in a workplace that need attention to provide a safe working environment for all employees. Safety management systems make health and safety an integral part of a business’s core operations. Investing in designing, developing, and implementing an effective safety management system will enable businesses to better manage reporting, responsibilities, planning, and resourcing. In order to build a robust safety management system, organizations must have six elements:
Customer Success
8 Pillars for Workplace Safety Management
The prerequisites for the successful implementation of your workplace safety management system include:
The PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle is essential for a smooth implementation and continuous improvement of your systems to keep pace with the changing market and regulatory requirements.
Once the team is aware of the safety policy, employee roles, and responsibilities, the first step in OSHA compliance will be planning. While building an SMS for the workplace, it is necessary to plan the execution methodology of the system that allows the HR and safety teams to work collaboratively. Broadly, the following points should be considered:
Next step in OSHA safety is implementation. It is essential to have a safety checklist that will cover all aspects of the compliance requirements. The four broad components of the implementation process include:
Having a proactive approach is the key to OSHA compliance. According to OSHA, safety and health compliance is a continuous process. Constant monitoring is important to ensure that the system is working as per the plan and relevant to the evolving OSHA regulatory standards and organizational requirements.
Continuous evaluation is the cornerstone of a successful safety program mandated by OSHA. Employers must constantly evaluate the safety program for early indicators to predict mishaps on the shop floor or any other location. With a strong communication system, businesses can leverage these data points to train and educate employees on safety standards. Over time, these parameters can be used as a checklist to improve the safety and health standards of the organization.
We implemented this software where I work and have been overall happy with the outcome. After taking a day or two workings to learn the software, you’ll never want to go back to your old ways! There’s also a huge library of training videos provided with the subscription, and an easy to use ticket portal. Moving to CQ HSE was worth the effort and will pay for itself within the year, but what really matters is that we have a fully functional HSE software that can grow and evolve with the business. The mobile features and real-time data capture provides great accessibility to the HSE program for all levels of staff.
