However, in accordance with the new Law on Labor Health and Safety, the limit of 50 employees is cancelled, and it becomes obligatory for all workplaces to employ labor safety specialists and workplace doctors. In other words, a workplace, in which only three workers are being employed, is also to obtain service from labor safety specialists and workplace doctors.
We hereby advise our esteemed customers to receive training and consultancy
from a labor safety company after the publication of the respective regulations due
to not only the penal sanctions of the new law, but also due to the likelihood of
being imposed to respective proceedings due to potential labor safety risks.
This document outlines a health and safety plan for a construction project. It discusses general policies and procedures related to identifying hazards and risks, developing controls, and complying with relevant regulations. It also provides an overview of the project scope and activities, including preliminary work, earthmoving, pipe installation, carpentry, and concrete work. Matrices will be used to identify hazards, evaluate risks, and determine controls for all project tasks. The plan aims to establish guidelines to prevent occupational injuries and illnesses and protect worker health and safety during the project duration.
The document discusses the importance of a written occupational safety and health (OSH) policy for workplaces. It explains that a policy should include a statement detailing the organization's commitment to health and safety, responsibilities allocated to roles, and arrangements for managing specific OSH activities and risks. It notes that legally a policy only needs to address employee health and safety, but addressing contractor and public safety is also good practice. Having a written policy helps industries improve OSH standards and comply with relevant regulations.
The document provides information on the Certified Safety Professional Programme (CSPP) which is a certification awarded by the Dynamic Institution of Skill Development. The CSPP helps safety professionals advance in their careers and provides opportunities for leadership positions and increased salaries. It requires a bachelor's degree and 3 years of professional safety experience. The programme covers topics like OSHA standards, international labor organization recommendations, and roles and responsibilities in health and safety for management and employees. It aims to educate individuals on national and international safety laws to improve safety practices.

The WHS about offences and penalties
1.1. Executive summary
The work health and safety (WHS) is the legislation act that was developed to enlighten the people about the rights and the rights toward in the work place. The act provides the directives and measures that should be followed in the organization for the workers safety to reach. Therefore across all organizational levels, it is critical to understand how WHS legislation is applied in work place. As portrayed in the WHS codes and regulation of practice, section 274 â 276, the WHS regulations stipulates means in which the duties under WHS (NUL) act should be met and give the prescription on the administrative and procedural requirement so as to support the WHS act . Ingelse, C. (2001).
The guarding premise of the WHS legislative measures is bound on the reasonably practicable (section 18); which holds that, all people should be assumed the highest levels of safety protections from unfavorable conditions that may arise at work place.
1.2. Introduction
The discussion focuses on the offences and penalties that are laid out by the WHS act. The act provides three perspectives of the criminal offence, as a result of the breach of the safety duty. The acts recognizes various penalties predicaments which depend on categories of offence and or whether the due offender is a corporate body, individual, and or officer.
The premise of the penalty categories require that, the holder of the duty who does not have substantiate excu.
The document discusses occupational safety and health legislation and regulations in Malaysia. It begins by outlining several key acts related to occupational safety. It then focuses on the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1994, which was introduced to expand coverage beyond just the manufacturing sector and address limitations of previous legislation. The act covers all economic sectors and sets duties for employers, employees, designers, and safety committees. It aims to promote a safe work environment through a tripartite approach between government, employers, and employees.
This document is a student assignment on occupational safety and health management that discusses legal requirements in Malaysia. It addresses the duty of employers and employees under Section 16 and Section 24 of Malaysia's Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994. Section 16 requires employers to establish a written safety and health policy, while Section 24 outlines employees' duty to take reasonable care for their own and others' safety. The assignment also examines two court cases that provide context for interpreting these legal requirements.
The mistaken unsung hero of productivityHumanology
Â
The traditional way to measure productivity focuses on the input, process and output. Industry focuses on the cost optimisation during the input, lean manufacturing, KAIZEN in the process and
the return of investment on the output. However, employee welfare is always labelled and perceived as cost and burden for the industry. This article aims to expose and to reveal the secrets of productivity that have always been the least priority - occupational safety and health.
This document provides an overview of occupational safety and health considerations for construction projects in Malaysia. It discusses legal requirements, duties of employers and designers, hazard identification and risk assessment, emergency response planning, and safety measures for various construction activities. Specific requirements addressed include notifying authorities of construction work, appointing safety officers and supervisors, developing safety policies and manuals, protecting the public through hoarding and traffic control, and following safe work procedures. The document is intended as a reference for complying with Malaysian occupational safety and health regulations during construction projects.
The management of health and safety of construction sites in accraAlexander Decker
Â
The document summarizes a study on the management of health and safety on construction sites in Accra, Ghana. It identifies the major types of injuries on sites as falls, being struck by falling/moving objects, and collapses. Questionnaires found contractors often underprice health and safety measures in bids. As a result, adequate safety implementation is not achieved, negatively impacting project time delivery due to accidents. The research concludes contractors must properly cost health and safety to avoid effects on schedules. It recommends establishing safety inspectors, prioritizing health and safety in estimates, and further study on associated costs.

Â
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with âinfinite interns.â (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these âinternsâ and what doesnât. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

1.1 INTRODUCTION
Managing occupational safety and health (OSH) at the workplace has become increasingly more
important due to higher stakeholdersâexpectations. More companies are outsourcing their works to third
party i.e. contractors due to their focus on core production activities. Project and maintenance works,
especially those which require specialist skills such as confined space entry, heavy lifting and scaffolding
are normally contracted out. These works are normally contracted out to specialist contractors who have
the required skills, knowledge and equipment to perform the job.
If the contract established between the client and contractor does not contain clear OSH requirements, it
may expose contractorsâworkers to the hazards and risks associated with the work.
Whenever there is any accident, it is normal that those involved will blame each other if their roles and
expectations were not clearly specified in the contract. Some of the issues that may arise are who is
responsible for specific OSH requirements such as Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and Risk Control
(HIRARC), gas testing, site supervision, etc.
Under Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 (OSHA 1994), employers or client who issue a contract
has a duty or responsibilty to provide as far as practicable, a safe and healthy workplace, including welfare
for his staff and contractors involved in the works.
It is important for all employers or clients to take all practicable steps to manage hazards and risks as early
as possible before the issuance of the contract. The contract should specify all OSH requirements, roles
and responsibilities of client and contractor, interfaces and manner in which all OSH hazards and risks
should be managed at the every stage of the contract.
It is a known fact that good OSH management in contracts will reduce the overall costs, increase quality
and productivity of works as well as protecting the safety and health of workers.

It is the duty of the client to provide information related to the hazards and risks associated with the
contract works to all the bidders, to ensure that they understand and address the hazards and risks that
may arise during execution of the contract.
The activities at this stage are development of scope of work, list of hazards and development of the
contract period.
3.1 SCOPE OF WORK
The objective of these activities is to ensure that potential contractors fully understand the scope of work
of the contract. The client is responsible for specifying the scope of work to be executed and providing
necessary information and documentation such as:
a) Design Specifications
b) Standards
c) Drawings
d) Duration of work
e) Applicable Legal and other requirements
f) Logistics
and any other additional scope specified by the client for specific works.

ii. Development and implementation of OSH plan with its Person In Charge, targets and timeline.
iii. Availability of specific procedures for specialized tasks, if required, by both contractor and sub-
contractor.
iv. Hazard identification, risk assessment and risk control (HIRARC) including consequences to people
and property for each contracted work with preventive and mitigation measures identified.
v. Clear delineation of roles and responsibilities for the execution of contract including implementation
and maintenance of control measures for all hazards and risks identified.
19. OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH GUIDELINE ON CONTRACT MANAGEMENT PAGE 17
5.1 TENDER EVALUATION
Client should evaluate each tender submitted by contractors. Tender evaluation should take into
consideration:
a) OSH capability assessment results of contractors.
b) Contractorâs ability to implement OSH plan and manage the risks. (eg. past OSH performance, site
assessment, competent personnel etc).
Client has a right to obtain further explanation and clarification from contractors on information provided
in their tender proposal. Client also has a right to seek agreement with the contractor especially on change
of OSH plan and requirements.
5.2 TENDER AWARD
Once the tender has been awarded, joint meetings should be held as soon as possible to agree on the
final details of the OSH Plan, OSH requirements and its implementation. The agreed details on the OSH
plan and other related requirements should be part of the contractual agreement.

The objectives of this stage are to ensure that the requirements of the OSH plan are communicated and
understood by both parties (client and contractor) prior to implementation of the contract. Any corrective
actions to be completed before commencement should be identified and agreed. Activities such as
reviews, meetings and audits should be carried out at this stage. The amount of details and effort for pre-
commencement activities should be commensurate with the level of risk identified.
6.1 PRE-COMMENCEMENT MEETING
A pre-commencement meeting and/or site visit should be carried out as it provides an opportunity for
the contractor(s) to become familiar with the location, facility, personnel, and other related specific site
requirements.

as defined in the OSH Plan.
f) Confirmation of the scope and schedule of the OSH plan, e.g. OSH meetings, audits and reviews.
g) Integration of clientâs and contractorâs emergency response plans and procedures (e.g. fire, medical
emergency, security, pandemic disease, evacuation etc).
h) Confirmation that OSH induction and training plans are in place and ready for implementation.
i) Briefing of sub-contractors management and personnel on the OSH Plan and requirements.
j) Incident reporting and investigation procedures.
k) Process for reporting, tracking and closing out of non-compliances identified during inspection,

l) Commencement plans and activities.
The meeting(s) may be structured as an OSH workshop, with participation of both clientâs project
management and contractorâs management. The meeting may also provide an opportunity to discuss
the need for a pre-commencement audit with scope agreed by both parties.
6.2 COMMENCEMENT AUDIT
During the commencement phase, audits or reviews against the OSH plan may be conducted to verify
that OSH systems are in place and check the condition of the equipment and the worksite. This can be
accomplished by a joint client/contractor OSH field review or audit.
If the audit identifies matters of significant concern, these should be reviewed against the contractual
terms and conditions including the OSH plan. Appropriate actions should be taken which may include
rectification, withholding permission to proceed or ultimately terminating the contract.
The objectives of this phase are to ensure that all OSH requirements in the contract are implemented
by all parties involved. Contractor and sub-contractor should be responsible to fully comply with the
OSH Plan and requirements during execution of work. Client should monitor the contractor performance
through regular inspection and audit.
22. PAGE 20
7.1 INSPECTION AND OSH AUDITS/REVIEWS
Contractor internal inspection/audits and regular joint inspection by client and contractor representatives
provide a means of compliance and performance verification against contract requirements. Joint
inspection/audit program have the advantage of aligning objectives, enhancing common understanding
and promoting constructive participation.
The frequency of such inspection/audits depends on the level of risks involved. Findings and
recommendations from inspection and audits should be shared to encourage commitment from both
parties to close the gaps identified.
The client should obtain contractorâs assurance on:
a) Contractorâs management commitment to OSH issues.
b) Compliance with all OSH related clauses in the contract and the OSH Plan.
c) Performance achieved against agreed OSH objectives.
d) The availability of contractorâs OSH management systems and procedures.
e) The contractorâs monitoring of the quality, conditions and integrity of its OSH processes, equipment
and tools.
f) Competence assurance and management of change of key personnel.
g) The contractorâs toolbox and regular OSH meetings.
h) The contractorâs implementation and participation in emergency exercises and drills.
i) Proper management of OSH risks which may arise from changes to the contractual scope of work.
j) Compliance with incident and non-conformance reporting, investigation and follow-up.
k) All required contract documentation has been provided to the client.
Regular review of OSH activities and performance against contractual requirements and objectives should
be conducted between client and contractor to ensure continual improvement in OSH performance.
7.2 OSH REGULAR REPORT
Contractor should submit the OSH report regularly to the client. Refer Appendix IV as a guideline. The
frequency of submission should be determined by the client.
EXECUTION7.0
23. OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH GUIDELINE ON CONTRACT MANAGEMENT PAGE 21
8.1 COMPLETION ACTIVITIES
The OSH plan should continue to be the reference for managing the OSH activities in this phase. Due
consideration should be taken of any lessons learned particularly from the commencement phase, the
problems encountered and solutions found. Completion often is a phase of a contract having an increased
probability of incidents as the contract infrastructure and contractor OSH management structures
are being dismantled with people moving off the contract to new assignments. Assurance should be
sought that the appropriate organizational structures remain intact until associated activities have been
completed.
The client and contractor should continue to monitor performance against the OSH plan, including
particular attention to incident reporting. It is important to maintain vigilance on OSH matters to the very
end of the contract.
8.2 FINAL EVALUATION AND CLOSE-OUT REPORT
Contractor shall submit a comprehensive OSH close out report to the client covering the duration starting
from contract award to client final acceptance. The close out report should cover the OSH Plan, activities,
OSH performance and lessons learnt of the contract and should be duly approved by client.
Lessons learnt from the close out report should be incorporated in the new contracts to ensure continual
improvement and safe execution of contracts.
