Description
This programme is about clarity, simplicity, and impact.
Instead of overwhelming you with jargon or endless theory, each module has been designed to be intuitive and practical. You’ll learn how to evaluate and improve a safety management system through clear explanations. You’ll understand cause analysis, stakeholder engagement, and continuous improvement in a way that connects directly to everyday practice.
Course modules cover the following topics:
- Introduction to Safety Management Systems – what a Safety Management System (SMS) is, its importance for workplace safety and business continuity, and OSHA’s perspective and goals
- Components of an Effective SMS – system structure including inputs, processes, and outputs, organisational integration of SMS, and real-world case examples
- Analysing the SMS – the 3-step analysis process, gathering baseline data, benchmarking and gap analysis, and a case study evaluating a mid-size logistics company
- Conducting Cause Analysis – document review techniques, walkaround inspections and employee interviews, and tools such as Fishbone Diagrams, 5 Whys, and Fault Tree Analysis
- Evaluating the SMS – definition and purpose of evaluation, building an evaluation plan, and team roles and stakeholder engagement
- SHARP – Safety & Health Achievement Recognition Program – overview of SHARP, its benefits, eligibility criteria, consultation process, and preparing your site for participation
- VPP – Voluntary Protection Program – overview and strategic benefits, three levels (Star, Merit, Demonstration), and application and onsite evaluation process
- Implementing Continuous Improvement – setting KPIs for your SMS, using audit results for action planning, and integration into broader organisational strategy
