Issue Resolution

OHS-SP-03 consultation and participation outlines the SJLM issue resolution process.

However, the process for this project is:

The procedure for settling disputes about OHS issues (other than injury management issues) that cannot be resolved by line managers, supervisors and HS Committee Members and/or HS Representatives at the local level is as follows:

  • The local HS Committee refers the matter to the relevant section’ Manager if no resolution is agreed.

  • The Manager considers the matter, consults with the Systems Manager and other Managers if required, and responds within a reasonable timeframe.

  • If the matter is not resolved after management has been given a reasonable opportunity to consider the matter and respond, the HS Committee or an HS Representative may request an investigation by the Company Director.

  • The General Manager investigates and provides a report to the HS Committee.

  • If the matter is still not resolved, the HS Committee or an HS Representative may request an investigation by an OHS Regulator’s Inspector. This request is made through the chairperson of the HS Committee and can be made without a formal meeting of the committee being convened.

Licensing, training and verification of competency

  • All workers are required to be licensing, trained and competent to complete the works the are undertaking.

  • This could be a formal RTO issued training; being inducted into a safe work method statement; or high-risk work license.

  • SJLM has developed 2604 Form 130 OHSMS Induction training register, which captures training needs for workers on the project.

  • Verification of required licensing, training and competencies shall be completed through the induction and on boarding process.

  • Information shall be captured on 2604 Form 251 Induction Card and retained for the required period then securely disposed of.

SAFETY GOLDEN RULES

The Golden Rules detailed in this document have been developed by SJ & LM and apply to every person within our company.

These Golden Rules are fully endorsed and supported by the SJ & LM Management Team.

What are Golden Rules?

  • Golden rules are simple clearly stated behaviours that are expected of everyone in the team.  Golden Rules protect those who work with us from serious injury or death.  For this reason, the Golden Rules are treated very seriously and there are NO exceptions.


What if I can’t do my work without breaching a Golden Rule?

  • There are NO exceptions.  No-one is to observe an unsafe condition/act without correcting it.  If you can see no alternative means of performing the task without breaching a Golden Rule, stop the work and bring the matter to the attention of your Supervisor. 

  • If there is no way forward identified without breaching the Golden Rules, the Area Manager must be consulted for appropriate determination.

  •  What happens if I breach a Golden Rule?

  • The circumstances of any breach will be investigated and considered.  Any person who is found to have breached the Golden Rules will risk termination of employment.  As a minimum, disciplinary action will involve recorded counseling.

  • Any “Leader” who fails to correct a breach or knowingly condones a breach will be regarded as having committed the breach.
