I introduce the term “PDCA” here I often use the term “activities, products, and services” here and reference the standard’s use of these terms
I typically read this whole slide – very important
Risk assessment – similar to environmental aspects. Should address routine and non-routine activities. Methodology should be proactive. S – specific M- measurable A – achievable R – relevant T – time based
Proactive – interviews, done on a routine basis, independent of any event Reactive – in response to event Print and handout Leading Indicators File CA – system to handle, investigate (procedures and root cause analysis), and mitigate acc, incidents and non-conformances Audit – need to know where you’re going.
This does not mean signing off a document saying he/she reviewed it. Means actual documented involvement with walkthroughs and employee interviews. Actual verification that the system functions as intended.
Pre-assessment - It is a risk-free, dry run before the main assessment and provides a number of benefits: test your management system with an assessor in a relaxed atmosphere. Identify areas that may still require some work, and enables you to plan a realistic time-scale for full assessment. 1 st Phase - At this time, a "site tour" will be conducted, an examination of the environmental/health & safety aspects/effects legislative requirements review takes place a review of the policy statement, specific objectives, targets, internal audits and management review. 2 nd Phase - carried out in accordance with the assessment programme to establish the effectiveness of the management systems compliance with the requirements of the Standards. sampling the Management System and policy requirements review any corrective actions from the Stage 1 the approval outcome is made. Periodic reviews - A typical programme for the surveillance activities will include: review internal audit and management review reports review outstanding observations and improvement notes review corrective and preventive action systems including customer complaints review system changes and the effectiveness of their implementation review use of Registrar and accreditation logos

There’s nothing more tragic than the murder of a beautiful theory by a gang of brutal facts
Auditing paper is good, but value comes in providing strategies to change behavior and improve performance
Every company has a management system… (don’t tell mgmt to go and buy one) the idea is to improve it. Cultural change, management commitment, employee involvement, etc. You need to get from A to B, you can do it by bicycle, Yugo, or Ferrari (This is your MS) make sure you’re headed in the right direction (strategy) and that you’re moving at the right speed (goals) A Ferrari at low speed (top system without right goals) will not get you anywhere. A bicycle at at higher speed may be better. Set your system by using the right strategy and setting SMART goals, and your OHS program will prosper. Those who don’t have their programs end in stagnation.
