health and safety management systems and this policy. 1. An overview of university’s hazard identification and risk management system and any specific issue that want to bring team’s attention to Approach to managing WHS risks in university A proactive technique called risk management enables you to adapt to change and promote continuous learning at the university. The workflow and process for the university's hazard identification and risk management system is described below: The four steps for managing WHS Risks are: Step 1 - Identify Hazards Step 2 - Assess Risk Understand the type of harm that could be produced by the risk, the severity of the harm, and the likelihood that it will occur, if necessary. Step 3 - Control Risk Use the most effective control measure that can be reasonably implemented under the conditions, and make sure it keeps working overtime. Step 4 - Review Control Measures Figure 1. Overview of the risk management process

 Assessment Task 3: Assessment Task Conduct and Report on a WHS Audit Schedule TBA Outcomes Assessed Performance Criteria: 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 3.1, 3.3, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 5.2 Addresses some elements of required skills and knowledge as shown in the Assessment Matrix Description: This assessment task is continuation of Assessment Task1. The same teams will continue for this assessment task. This assessment task cannot be completed as a stand-alone task and the learners must ensure that they are part a team from the beginning of the team project in Week 2. Assume that your team has been asked to conduct an WHS audit in one of the university departments to identify and mitigate any hazards and risks. For simulation purpose, we will assume that the current college building is the required site. You will be required to select one of the areas of WHS/OHS Management (e.g. Workstation, Manual Handling) at the college, or the college building, and;  Develop a checklist based on safety requirements under the new WHS legislation (National) under the Work Health and Safety Act 2011  Prepare and communicate audit schedule to your team members  Conduct an audit based on the checklist  Download specific guidelines and codes of practice under the legislation for the areas of risk identified  Based on university’s Work Health and Safety Policy Provide recommendations for addressing the areas of risk identified in the audit  Suggest appropriate internal consultation and reporting process to communicate the WHS/OHS matters identified  Suggested training needs of the staff, if required, to meet OHS/WHS requirements  Make recommendations to mitigate the risks or improvements, and estimate costs involved with implementation of the new initiatives The teams will need to maintain a project folder and organise all the references and works for assessment. Please note, use either one of the university templates or standard hazard identification and risk assessment templates to record and report hazards. Once the team has competed the audit; 1. Plan a meeting with an arranged schedule with the help of your supervisor (trainer/assessor role-play) 2. Prepare and circulate an agenda 3. Conduct a meeting and discuss the audit outcomes 4. Review the outcomes in view of the relevant WHS/OHS legislations and/or regulations 5. Develop recommendations to deal with the reported hazards (including staff training requirements) 6.

Announcing of discoveries from a WHS review For a Tier 1 WHS review, the inspector documents any findings from the outsider the University locks in into a supported WHS Audit Report format. The University receives the WHS review report from the Tier 1 outside examiner for audit and confirmation of the findings. The University then prepares a plan for corrective actions in Figtree for any deficiencies discovered. The examiner logs all discoveries in Figtree for a Tier 2 WHS review. The discoveries from a WHS review are delegated underneath: Consistency (for instance, 95%-100% of enquiry addresses and reports must meet the requirements of the WHSMS Handbook, whichever is lower). Possibility for improvement (for instance, 80%–95% of enquiry addresses and reports fulfil the requirements of the WHSMS Handbook, whichever is lower). Perception (for instance, 65%–80% of inquiries are answered positively, and records also comply with WHSMS Handbook requirements, whichever is lowest) Non-conformity (for instance 65% or less of enquiry addresses and archives comply with the requirements of the WHSMS Handbook). The neighbourhood where the evaluation was conducted receives the WHS review report from the Tier 2 inner reviewer for audit and to confirm the findings. The inner reviewer also assigns corrective actions for any deficiencies (such as when a No is selected in review questions or archives). It is the responsibility of the school/division directors, college deans, and general managers to ensure that sufficient resources are set up and that corrective actions resulting from evaluations are treated as necessary. Detailing WHS review results The Associate Director WEG reports on the progress of the WHS review programme and the outcomes of reviews in accordance with WHSMS Handbook Chapter 4.5 Section 4.5.2.3 guidance and in accordance with WHS announcing, WHS correspondence and counsel, and WHS the executives survey techniques. Exploring the adequacy of the WHS review program During and after each review programme cycle, the Associate Director WEG assesses the adequacy of the WHS review programme. The critical viability proportions are:  completed reviews versus scheduled reviews.  number of non-conformances.  and reviewer ability (like the quantity of interior inspectors). WHSMS Handbook clarifies and improves on this method, particularly the internal review process.

Download specific guidelines and codes of practice under the legislation for the areas of risk identified Safety, Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 1988 (SRC Act) The Safety, Rehabilitation and Compensation Commission is a statutory body that seeks improvement in occupational health and safety, rehabilitation and workers' compensation in the Commonwealth jurisdiction. Dangerous Substance Act 2004 The purpose of this Act is to protect people's health and safety, as well as to protect property and the environment from damage caused by hazardous substances. This Act's goals include the following: to eliminate the hazards associated with dangerous substances; if it is not reasonably practicable to eliminate the hazards, to minimise the risks resulting from the hazards as far as reasonably practicable by, for example, ensuring that the hazards are identified and then reported ACT codes of practice Codes of practise outline how to meet workplace health and safety standards. Codes do not replace laws, but they can assist you in understanding what you must do to comply with specific regulations and provide a safe and healthy workplace. Based on university’s Work Health and Safety Policy Provide recommendations for addressing the areas of risk identified in the audit WHS Policy Amendment 1 - Manual handling All manual handling tasks must be risk assessed and controlled. All levels of employees and management must identify, communicate, and discharge their responsibilities effectively. When a need for manual handling is identified as part of a control measure, equipment will be provided to assist. This equipment will be used appropriately and well always maintained, with all operators certified as required by law. WHS Policy Amendment 2 – Contractors The University of Canberra is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for all workers under its control, including contractors and subcontractors. Contractors are typically workers hired to perform a specific task, such as delivery/pickup of goods or tradespeople performing repair or maintenance work in the workplace. In order to achieve this goal, it is recognized that contractors need to be:  Suitably experienced to perform the tasks in possession of all necessary licences, permits, registrations, and insurance required to perform the works safely and in compliance with appropriate regulations  Notified of any potential hazards associated with the location or use of the area where the works are to be carried out  Made aware of Emergency Procedures  All contractors must abide by WHS requirements which will be advised to them before engagement by the relevant Campus Manager.

Suggest appropriate internal consultation and reporting process to communicate the WHS/OHS matters identified Consultation is the process by which employers communicate and consult with their employees on matters of health and safety by sharing information and providing employees with a reasonable opportunity to express their opinions. These opinions should be considered by the employer before making a final decision. Appropriate Internal consultation to communicate WHS/OHS  identifying hazards and assessing risks arising from work performed or to be performed deciding how to eliminate or reduce those risks deciding on the adequacy of facilities for worker welfare proposing changes that may affect the health and safety of your workers  Making decisions about procedures for consulting with workers; resolving health and safety issues.  Monitoring the health of your workers; monitoring the conditions at the workplace and providing Information and training for the workers Reporting process to communicate the WHS/OHS  Company Notice Boards.  Emails and Internal Intranet Systems.  Registers – Incident/Accident Registers.  Daily Pre-Start Meetings.  Hazard/Near Miss Report Forms.  Company Newsletter.  WHS consultation meetings with HSRs/ HSCs (Health and Safety Committees) Suggest training needs of the staff, if required, to meet OHS/WHS requirements Several types of training are required to maintain WHS and OHS at the workplace for workers, staff, and students, respectively.  Workplace orientation.  Fire safety and emergency procedures.  First aid  Health and safety (such as risk assessments or accident reporting procedures)  Welfare facilities.  Safe use of workplace tools, machinery, equipment.  Risk assessments.  Maintenance or storage of personal protective equipment

Make recommendations to mitigate the risks or improvements, and estimate costs involved with the implementation of the new initiatives Risk management must be an ongoing effort that does not end with a qualitative risk assessment or the establishment of contingency levels. The project execution plan, or risk analyses, should include risk mitigation strategies and specific action plans. Plans for risk mitigation should include:  Identify and quantify the root causes of risks identified and quantified earlier in the risk management process.  Consider risk interactions as well as common causes.  Identify alternative risk mitigation strategies, methods, and tools for each major risk; assess and prioritise mitigation options; and select and commit the resources needed for specific risk mitigation options. Implementation Costs are the total or partial costs of installing or implementing Measures that result in Completed Units. Cost Involved with the implementation of the new initiatives:  Initial briefing about training program  Training materials such as workbooks, videos  Staff time including replacement time  Instructor fee  Travel, lodging or meal expenses required to participate  Ongoing training  Contingencies

ASSESSMENT TASK 4 ANSWER 1. An overview of the new WHS legislation The University of Sydney is one of the country's oldest and most prestigious universities, with a long history of accomplishments and a distinguished alumnus. The University has procedures in place to ensure that employees, affiliates, students, and visitors are not exposed to health and safety risks in university workplaces, and to assist them in adhering to the University's Work Health and Safety Policy 2012. The University's WHS/OHS initiatives and documentation, taken together, provide a cohesive WHS management system that complies with the required legislation. Name of policy This is the Work Health and Safety Policy 2021. Commencement This policy commences on 2 May 2021. Policy is binding Except where expressly stated otherwise, this policy binds the University, Fellows, Senate committee members, staff, students, and affiliates (including volunteers and contractors). Statement of intent The University is committed to the health and safety of everyone involved in or affected by university activities. Work Health & Safety Policy 2021. This policy supports the implementation of a safety management system which provides:  a safe and healthy work environment.  safe systems of work.  appropriate information, training, instruction, supervision.  arrangements for meaningful consultation on health and safety matters at work; and (e) a positive safety culture. Application This policy applies to:  Fellows, members of Senate committees, staff, students, affiliates (including volunteers and contractors), visitors; and  all activities conducted by or on behalf of the University.

Safety management system The University’s safety management system is multi-layered and includes:  the Safety, Health and Wellbeing Strategic Plan.  this policy and the procedures.  he safety management standards.  common processes.  performance standards for specific operational risks; and  local practices and processes of organisational units. Purpose of Health and Safety at workplace The goal of any WHS risk assessment is to ensure that appropriate control measures are implemented for any identified hazards in order to protect workers, contractors, and visitors from risks to their health, safety, and welfare. The University must meet its obligations to provide a safe and healthy workplace for workers or other persons, to the greatest extent reasonably practicable, by ensuring:  A safe system for work  A safe work environment  Accommodation for workers, if provided  Safe use of plant, structures and substances  Facilities for welfare of workers are adequate  Notification and recording of workplace incidents  Effective systems are in place for monitoring the  health of workers and workplace condition

Creating and sustaining a culture in which all employees are encouraged to actively manage health and safety risks.  Providing a continually improving work, health and  safety management system  Establishing a work, health and safety management framework to meet legislative obligations  Communication on the importance of a just safety culture  Providing information, training, and resources to our people to assist them to manage risks  Innovation and technologies to minimise health and safety risks for our people  consulting, cooperating, and coordinating with our key stakeholders to achieve health and safety goals and  objectives  Reporting on the effectiveness of the work health and safety management systems and this policy  externally and to senior management as required

2. A summary of WHS/OHS audit conducted in the previous task Here is the attached question template, which was used to interview university students. Average ratings ranging from 0 to 9 have been assigned. · 0-5 A high likelihood of an adverse event occurring with a high likelihood of causing harm to people, plant integrity, or the environment. The presence of such a problem necessitates immediate attention, including the implementation of interim control measures as needed. 5-7 Moderate A high likelihood of an adverse event occurring with a low likelihood of causing harm to people, plant integrity, or the environment. · 7-9 There is a low likelihood of an adverse event occurring with a high likelihood of causing harm to people, plant integrity, or the environment. There is a low likelihood of an adverse event occurring, with a low likelihood of harm to people, plan integrity, or the environment. Events that need further research and implementations:  I understand the rules and safe operating procedures at this workplace for equipment and vehicles  understand the principles of radiation safety and radiation protection as applicable to my workplace or N/A 3. Recommended hazard identification procedure (with suggested improvements) Issues that need further attention: ·  Water spillage near the kitchen area: This can be remedied by designating separate drinking water areas for staff and students, as well as covering the kitchen area with a rug.  In the classroom, an electrical cable connects laptop chargers: It can be avoided by using ANZSCO-compliant connection fittings.  Loose chairs packed closely: Because moving chairs pose a hazard in a variety of ways, fixed sitting space must be installed to prevent future workplace injuries.

4. Risk assessment and management strategies Approach to managing WHS risks in University Risk management is a proactive process that assists you in responding to change and facilitating continuous improvement at your university. The workflow and procedure for the university's hazard identification and risk management system are as follows: The four steps for managing WHS Risks are: Step 1 - Identify Hazards Step 2 - Assess Risk If necessary – understand the nature of the harm that could be caused by the hazard, how serious the harm could be and the likelihood of it happening. Step 3 - Control Risk Implement the most effective control measure that is reasonably practicable in the circumstances and ensure its long-term effectiveness. Step4 - Review Control Measures Deciding for a WHS review The examiner directs the review by observing and seeking proof from an agent test of workers that the WHSMS technique and its corresponding Handbook Chapters are perceived and appropriately carried out. The review should focus on the framework's exhibition rather than the people. The Health Safety Representatives (HSRs) may be invited to the meetings by the examiner.

5. Team member (and other staff part of the implementation) training needs, including any needs identified as part of the audit process in the previous task Several trainings are required to maintain WHS and OHS at the workplace for workers, staff, and students, respectively. · Workplace orientation. · Fire safety and emergency procedures. · First aid. · Health and safety (such as risk assessments or accident reporting procedures) · Welfare facilities. · Safe use of workplace tools, machinery, equipment. · Risk assessments. 6. Recommended Training Resources example: Courses, Professional Development: There are numerous recommendations for training resources related to the course, such as physical training resources such as training materials (curriculum, lesson plans, videos, self- paced packages, and so on) and the physical environment for formal training delivery. List of training resources for course  Textbooks  Sofware  Relevant reading materials  Videos  Recordings  Lectures  Group discussion and activities  Hands-on training Training Resources for Personal Development: There are several examples of Personal Development such as:  Communication  Interpersonal Skills  Organization  Problem- Solving  Self-confidence  Adaptability  Integrity  Work ethic

7. Mentoring and coaching arrangements: The Rationale for a Mentoring and Coaching Programme  Influencing Stakeholders. ...  A Clear Recruitment Strategy/Communication and Publicity. ...  Preparing the Participants. ...  The Matching Process. ...  Supporting the Mentoring Programme. ...  Review and Evaluation  Increase individual and team commitment to an organisation and its goals  Help improve communication within the organisation  Help to change organisational culture for the better  Allow individuals to gain a greater insight into the organisation’s workings  Effect change unless clear, measurable goals are set in advance  Benefit the protégé unless there is support from senior managers  Succeed unless both coach and protégé are fully committed to the coaching programme 8. WHS record keeping requirements according to the legislation: The essential record keeping requirements according to the legislations are:  Set-up a records retention schedule  Policies and procedures according to legislation  Accessibility, indexing and storage  Compliance auditing  Disposal of obsolete records
