Hazard & Risk Mitigation

308: Monitor and develop ongoing risk reporting processes

In order for an organization to have a clear view of its OHS performance, it is necessary to develop an OHS risk reporting system that provides detailed, regular reports. Understanding the impact of OHS on a business requires an OHS reporting system that is in alignment with the organization’s structure and operations. OHS professionals are often responsible for the development and ongoing maintenance of these reporting systems. In order to act as an effective resource for their workplace, an OHS professional should be able to use the risk reporting system to escalate emerging risks, provide ongoing information regarding OHS performance, and provide recommendations for improvements based on systematic data analysis.
