AUTOMOTIVE:
This booklet summarizes the key messages of the latest edition of Successful health and safety management
(HSG65) which retains the well-received framework for managing health and safety set out in earlier editions,
as well as providing improved guidance on:
Planning for health and safety;
Accident and incident investigation;
Health and safety auditing.
This booklet also explains what is involved in good management of health and safety and the cost of getting it
wrong. It is aimed at directors and managers and should also help supervisors, owners of small firms, employee
representatives, insurance companies, trade associations and other key players. Many of the messages will be
of interest to small and medium-sized firms, who will find further information in Essentials of health and safety
at work and five steps to risk assessment - see page 11 for details.

HSE studies have found that uninsured costs outweigh those covered by
insurance policies. In a wide range of business sizes and activities, the
total uninsured losses from day-to-day accidents ranged from twice up to
36 times the total paid in insurance premiums in the same year; the
average was around ten times the amount paid in premiums.
So in some cases, you could think of accident costs like an iceberg, with
the majority of the losses uninsured and hidden below the water line.
Directors and managers can be held personally responsible for failures to
control health and safety. Can you afford such failures? Do you really
manage health and safety? This booklet shows you how. It lists five steps
to success. Following them will help you to keep your staff at work and
reduce the costs of injuries, illness, property and equipment damage. You
will have fewer stoppages, higher output, and better quality. By
complying with the law and avoiding fines you will avoid damaging
publicity. You cannot be a 'quality' organisation unless you apply sound
management principles to health and safety. Inspectors visiting your
workplace will want to know how you manage health and safety. If an
accident occurs, you, your systems, procedures, and employees will come
under scrutiny. Will they stand up to examination? Read about the five
steps and ask yourself the five questions after each one. Get your
managers and staff to discuss them.
Competence:
o Assess the skills needed to carry out all tasks safely.
o Provide the means to ensure that all employees,
including your managers, supervisors and temporary
staff, are adequately instructed and trained.
o Ensure that people doing especially dangerous work have the necessary training, experience and other
qualities to carry out the work safely.
o Arrange for access to sound advice and help.
o Carry out restructuring or reorganization to ensure the competence of those taking on new health and
safety responsibilities.
Control:
o Lead by example: demonstrate your commitment and
provide clear direction - let everyone know health and safety
is important.
o Identify people responsible for particular health and safety
jobs – especially where special expertise is called for, eg
doing risk assessments, driving fork-lift trucks.
o Ensure that managers, supervisors and team leaders
understand their responsibilities and have the time and
resources to carry them out.
o Ensure everyone knows what they must do and how they
will be held accountable - set objectives.
Co-operation:
o Chair your health and safety committee - if you have one.
Consult your staff and their representatives.
o Involve staff in planning and reviewing performance, writing procedures and solving problems.
o Co-ordinate and co-operate with those contractors who work on your premises.
Communication:
o Provide information about hazards, risks and preventive measures tom employees and contractors
working on your premises.
o Discuss health and safety regularly.
o Be 'visible' on health and safety.
Ask yourself:
1. Have you allocated responsibilities for health and safety to specific people – are they clear on what they
have to do and are they held accountable?
2. Do you consult and involve your staff and their representatives effectively?
3. Do your staffs have sufficient information about the risks they run and the preventive measures?
4. Do you have the right levels of expertise? Are your people properly trained?
5. Do you need specialist advice from outside and have you arranged to obtain it?
Measurable;
Achievable;
Realistic.
Ask yourself:
1. Do you have a health and safety plan?
2. Is health and safety always considered before any new work is started?
3. Have you identified hazards and assessed risks to your own staff and the public, and set standards for
premises, plant, substances, procedures, people and products?
4. Do you have a plan to deal with serious or imminent danger, eg fires, process deviations etc?
5. Are the standards put in place and risks effectively controlled?
Ask yourself:
1. How do you learn from your mistakes and your successes?
2. Do you carry out health and safety audits?
3. What action is taken on audit findings?
4. Do the audits involve staff at all levels?
5. When did you last review your policy and performance?
This approach to managing health and safety is tried and tested. It has strong similarities to quality
management systems used by many successful companies. It can help you protect people and control loss. All
five steps are fundamental. How well did you answer the questions about each step? If you think there is room
for improvement, act today: don't react to an accident tomorrow.
