Effective health and safety policy arrangementsThe inspector checked if the organisation’s general policy statement for health and safety was adequate. The policy statement reads as follows
To the best of our ability, we commit to:
Preventing accidents, injury and ill health.
Investigating accidents and near misses.
Providing safe and healthy working conditions.
Providing safe plant and equipment for office and mobile workers.
Ensuring safe handling and use of substances.
Setting and reviewing specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and timebound (SMART) health and safety objectives.
Meeting legal requirements.
Identifying health and safety hazards and risks in the workplace.
Providing adequate training.
Providing health and safety information to workers.
Consulting workers.
Based on the scenario only, to what extent has this policy been implemented?
