Safety Management System Development
With changes to current Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) laws and regulations in many jurisdictions, providing workers with a safe work environment has become an even more crucial component in the prevention and control of workers' compensation injuries and associated costs.
Health and Safety systems are an essential part of any business. Effective claims management combined with a sound Health and Safety Management System can reduce the cost of workplace accidents. DAXX Safety Associates specializes in the prevention of losses, which will result in improved Health and Safety compliance; the efficiency and effectiveness of your business operations. This systematic, preventative approach when combined with an effective claims management program is synergistic in nature.
A Safety Management System is a customized system of an employer’s Policies, Procedures and Practices. This service provides your operations with a custom designed system that protects your employees and your company.
An initial consultation is scheduled to gather information on your business and your needs. In working with your management and employees we will build upon your operating principles to help development and implement a simplified approach to managing safety.
Auditing
Health, Safety and Environmental Audits are a systematic review of management processes conducted to national and international standards which include documentation review, observational tours and interviews.
In order for a safety system to improve, it must be measured. Our professional and qualified auditors can be contracted to conduct Internal and External audits that help provide critical information on a company’s safety system.
In partnership with the Construction Safety Network of British Columbia and the Alberta Construction Safety Association we are qualified to provide Certificate of Recognition audits in the partnerships programs across Canada.
