Smart OHS systems - Compliance is easy!
Smart OHS systems is the premier OHS management tool in the competitive online market.
The system was developed by Chris Beasley, whose company, Smart OHS has been delivering OHS consulting and training services to the large and small companies, such as: AHA (NSW) and RailCorp since 2005.
Why Smart OHS?
By talking to many different business owners and their staff over this time, Chris experienced first hand just how little time most had to commit to OHS. It became increasingly clear that some workplaces (who did have systems) were using over-complicated and extremely complex systems. What was even more worrying was that some workplaces didn't even have an OHS system in place.
With or without an OHS system in place, Smart OHS systems adapt to your workplace to make OHS quick and simple. Best of all, the system is about to be upgraded and offered at a low annual subscription basis (and sometimes for free) through your Workers Compensation insurer.
How Smart OHS systems works
The Smart OHS system works by issuing an ongoing series of email reminders, which prompt members to undertake OHS-related tasks.
A typical member would login four times per month and would perform such tasks as:
A monthly workplace inspection, new staff inductions, load some contractor insurance details (so they cannot lapse without the member knowing), and possibly lodge an incident report.
Each system task is very easy to perform and the details can be saved by keying into the online Smart OHS system. One of the key features (of the system) is that each task records a date for follow up so that the member will be notified through an email when they need to monitor how an issue has progressed. Each member can also view a 'My History' section of all records created at any time. Using Smart OHS makes OHS very easy. Smart OHS makes OHS sense.
Who needs Smart OHS?
The answer in short - every small - medium sized business in most fields. It is a common misconception that OHS and having an OHS (management) system is optional. This is not the case.
According to the various state-based OHS Acts, Regulations and Australian Standard 4801 (OHSMS), every business in Australia must have a mechanism in place to routinely review and improve OHS within the workplace (an OHS Management System). With Smart OHS, businesses can feel more comfortable that they are compliant with all relevant OHS legislation.
