The new standard AS4801
For the first time, a new Australian standard- launched today - provides a system for independent recognition of companies who have effective safeguards in place to reduce accidents and injuries in the workplace.
Every year, work related injury and disease cost the Australian community $27 billion. There are more people who die from work related injuries than on our roads.
The new standard AS4801 Occupational health and safety management systems – specification with guidance for use establishes a framework for enabling independent external audits and reviews of an organization’s occupational health and safety management systems.
The new standard was launched by the NSW Attorney General and Minister for Industrial Relations, the Hon Jeff Shaw, MP.
According to the Chief Executive of Standards Australia, Ross Wraight, the publication of AS4801 represents a major step forward, and provides significant benefits to employers and employees equally.
“Adherence to the new standard provides confidence that OH&S issues are being systematically approached and resolved, which in turn leads to such benefits as less time lost due to accident or injury; reduced workers compensation claims; reduced staff turnover; better staff morale and improved productivity,” Mr Wraight said.
"There are only a handful of countries that have successfully developed an occupational health and safety management system specification that has been through the full consensus process like AS 4801,” he said.
This standard is important because it is very closely aligned with international standards relating to environmental management systems. What this means is that Australia now has fully compatible management systems standards for quality, environment and occupational health and safety.
The chairman of the Committee which prepared the standard, Associate Professor Chris Winder said: "AS 4801 is the result of consensus being achieved between representatives of industry, unions, government, OH&S professionals, certification bodies and academia on what are the benchmarks for an effective OH&S management system.
"There were significant issues to address, like the cost of OH&S MS on business and how small business in particular could become involved. I am pleased to say that this project showed how the checks and balances in the process ensured that those issues were tackled head on and that solutions were found, “ he said.
The standard has been developed both for third-party certification, as well as self-certification.
The emphasis in the Standard is for companies to identify hazards, then to develop and implement control actions which, wherever possible, eliminate those hazards or isolate people from the hazard.
Where this is not possible, work activities should be planned and controlled through administrative means to the extent necessary to prevent injury and illness.

OFFICE WORKERS EXPOSED TO DVT RISKS?
Office workers who spend long
hours at their desk may be more prone to potentially fatal blood clots
than passengers on long-haul flights, according to new research.
A
study by researcher Professor Richard Beasley of the
Medical Research Institute of
New Zealand
in Wellington found that a third of patients admitted to hospital with deep
vein thrombosis (DVT) were office workers who spent long periods at a
computer. The researchers said the problem was most common in the
information technology industry and in call-centres.
