Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems (OHSMS)

Your Framework for a Safer, Compliant Worksite

At Construction Health and Safety Auckland, we help construction companies develop and implement Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems (OHSMS) that are practical, effective, and tailored to their specific needs. These systems provide the foundation for proactively managing risks, improving safety culture, and ensuring compliance across your projects.

What Does an OHSMS Do?

An OHSMS provides a structured approach to managing workplace safety by outlining clear policies, processes, and tools. It enables organisations to:

• Establish and enforce safety protocols.
• Monitor, evaluate, and continually improve safety performance.
• Demonstrate a commitment to health and safety to stakeholders and workers.

Whether you are managing a small team or multiple large-scale projects, an OHSMS helps simplify the complexities of health and safety management.

The Core Elements of Our OHSMS

We create systems that integrate seamlessly with your existing operations while addressing your project’s unique risks. Key components include:

• Safety Objectives and Policies: Defining clear, actionable safety goals.
• Hazard and Risk Management: Identifying risks and implementing effective control measures.
• Operational Procedures: Establishing step-by-step processes to maintain safety on-site.
• Emergency Preparedness: Developing response plans to ensure your team is ready for any situation.
• Performance Metrics: Tracking safety performance to identify areas for improvement.

Why You Need a Customised OHSMS

Every construction project is different, and cookie-cutter solutions rarely address the full scope of site-specific challenges. A customised OHSMS ensures that:

• Your risks are identified and mitigated effectively.
• Your processes align with the latest legal requirements.
• Your team understands and adopts safety practices that work in the field.
