Objectives This Guide aims to provide basic guidance in implementing risk management (RM) at workplaces. Potential incidents can be prevented when hazards are identified and risks are managed. Back to content page

Risk Management Regulations The WSH (Risk Management) Regulations is one of the key components of the Workplace Safety and Health (WSH) Act. Under the Regulations, all workplaces are required to conduct risk assessments for routine and non-routine work. Back to content page

Risk Management involves Overview of Risk Management Risk Management involves identifying and analysing safety and health hazards associated with work; assessing the risks involved; prioritising measures to control the hazards and reduce the risks; controlling and monitoring the risks; and communicating these risks to all affected persons. Back to content page

Employer Roles and Responsibilities Roles and Responsibilities of an Employer TASK DETAILS Risk Assessment (RA) Ensure RA is conducted and available for all work activities Require RA updates to be provided in regular meetings (eg: WSH Committee Meeting) Ensure RA is reviewed / revised at least once every 3 years, or when there is an incident, near miss or dangerous occurrence; a significant change in work processes, facilities, work practices or work procedures, or change in workplace condition and layout; or new information on WSH risks

Employer Roles and Responsibilities of an Employer TASK DETAILS Risk Control Measures (RCM) Require all reasonably practicable steps to be taken to eliminate/minimize any foreseeable risk Require RCM to be implemented according to the hierarchy of control Support the implementation of RCM Risk Register Require Risk Register to be updated and available at all time RA Records Ensure RA records are kept for 3 years from the approval date Contractors / suppliers Require contractors / suppliers to conduct RA and implement risk control measures for work carried out by them at the workplace

Manager Roles and Responsibilities of a Manager TASK DETAILS Risk Assessment (RA) Ensure RA is carried out and available for all work activities Approve RA and ensure risk level is not rated ‘high risk’ Review / Revise RA at least once every 3 years from the approval date, or when there is an incident, near miss or dangerous occurrence; a significant change in the work processes, facilities, work practices or work procedures, or change in workplace condition and layout; or new information on WSH risk

Manager Roles and Responsibilities of a Manager TASK DETAILS Risk Control Measures (RCM) Prepare an action plan to implement RCM Ensure RCM are carried out and monitor their effectiveness Ensure safe work procedures (SWP) are available for all operations and implemented Review RA if the RCM are inadequate and ineffective Risk Register Ensure risk register is updated and available at all time

Manager Roles and Responsibilities of a Manager TASK DETAILS RA Records Maintain and update RA records Keep RA records for 3 years from the approval date Contractors / suppliers Ensure contractors / suppliers conduct RA and implement risk control measures for work carried out by them within the workplace Communication Ensure all persons exposed to the risks are informed of : the nature of the risks risk control measures safe work procedures

Human Resource Manager Roles and Responsibilities of a Human Resource Manager1 TASK DETAILS Recruitment & Orientation Ensure that a robust recruitment process is in place to choose suitable job candidates who are able to meet position requirements and WSH obligations Ensure that all new employees are given appropriate and sufficient orientation, and WSH training to equip them with the relevant knowledge, skills and abilities to succeed in their positions Communication Specify safety and health responsibilities in the job descriptions of employees Ensure that these responsibilities are effectively communicated to all employees Support the Employer and Manager to ensure that RA, risk control measures and SWPs are effectively communicated to all employees. 1In the absence of a Human Resource Manager in the organisation, the equivalent person undertaking such a work profile of the Human Resource Manager should execute the duties mentioned above

Human Resource Manager Roles and Responsibilities of a Human Resource Manager TASK DETAILS Documentation Ensure that WSH training and other related RA records are documented Safety and Health Outcomes Work with the Manager and RM or RA Leaders to consider safety and health outcomes in employees’ performance evaluation, remuneration and discipline, and to ensure consistent behaviour and practices in line with organisational expectations, where applicable Implementation Implement programmes that support and maintain employees’ safety, health and wellbeing
