4What is a Safety Management System?• An SMS is a comprehensive and integrated system that ensures that
all work at the facility is conducted safely
• It should be fully documented, accessible and comprehensible to those that need to use it
• It recognises the potential for errors and establishes robust defences (control measures) which are fully implemented, to ensure that errors do not result in accidents or near misses
• It is comprises a set of work practices and procedures for monitoring and improving the safety and health of all aspects of the operation

The Importance of SMS
• In reviews of accidents, a common thread throughout is the inadequacy of management systems that might have prevented the accident from occurring
• Examples of some issues identified are– Lack of hazard review and risk assessment to predict and
prevent incidents– Insufficient investigation and follow up after previous incidents– Inadequate training of staff– Failure to implement effective mechanical integrity programs

6Key Terms Used in Describing the SMSComprehensive• Describes the way that all safety issues including control measures are
managed • Clear link between controls management and the SMS
Integrated • The structure is logical, systematic • Logically ties in to other management systems • Corporate systems do not contradict onsite systems
Comprehensible• Abbreviations and terms used mean something to employees• Consideration of language issues

7Key Terms Used in Describing the SMSImplemented• Procedures are approved and in circulation• Evidence is available – completed forms and/or checklists • Employees are trained and knowledgeable
Accessible• Employees are aware of how to obtain the most up to date or relevant
procedures• Employees can obtain the SMS information needed to support control
measures

What are the key processes of SMS? • Hazard Identification – a method for identifying hazards related to your
organization; • Occurrence Reporting – a process for the acquisition of safety data; • Risk Management – a standard approach for assessing risks and for
applying risk controls; • Performance Measurement – management tools for analyzing whether
the organization’s safety goals are being achieved; and • Quality/Safety Assurance – processes based on quality management
principles that support continuous improvement of the organization’s safety performance.

Effective Safety and Health Management System
• 1. Management Leadership & Employee Involvement• Visible management support, involvement, and participation in the
safety and health program• Assign supervisors safety and health responsibility with the authority
to perform their duties• Empower employees and involve them in the safety and health
program. Hold them accountable• Develop safety and health policy, set annual goals and program
review

2. Worksite Analysis
Ensure that formal safety and health surveys are conductedConduct and document job hazard analysis (JHA)Develop a self-inspection program and conduct formal and informal workplace safety and health inspectionsDevelop a system for tracking, reporting, and investigating near misses, accidents/incidents and injuries and/or illnesses

What Should the SMS Do?• The SMS is the tool with which the Employer meets the overall goal of the
Regulations• The SMS should cover the following
– Define safety roles and responsibilities– Ensure adequate skills, information, tools and decision-making are present in
day to day and abnormal operations– Maintain awareness of hazards and risks– Plan, implement, measure and evaluate MA controls and the SMS– Develop performance requirements– Set targets for improvement of safety at the facility
– Manage change – Manage and maintain knowledge – Instigate HAZID and risk assessments– Manage adequate human resources– Provide performance information to all levels of organisation– Review and improve the SMS itself
04/15/2023 Bakhtar University Dept of BCE
23
What Should the SMS Do?
• Manage safe operation at the facility, including MAs, specifically focusing on:
– Prevention – Reduction– Mitigation
• It is not just documentation - it is the actual implementation of processes, procedures and practices at the facility
• Include and reflect the safety culture at the workplace

24
Measurement of Performance
• Performance standards/indicators must be developed and implemented as part of the SMS (e.g. measure the effectiveness of SMS) to support the MHF safety objectives
• The following principles apply in defining performance standards: Make them SMART
• Specific• Measurable• Achievable • Realistic• Targeted
• The purpose of performance standards/indicators for the SMS is to enable the objective measurement of its target and (subsequently) effective maintenance and improvement of performance
04/15/2023 Bakhtar University Dept of BCE
25
Measurement of Performance
• Standards and systems need to be practical• Should not place an unworkable burden on employees• Ensure open, comprehensive and accurate reporting of errors or
problems
Is an absence of evidence of problems really indicating high performance?
04/15/2023 Bakhtar University Dept of BCE
26
Measurement of Performance
• Performance indicators need to be meaningful and contribute to the overall evaluation of the SMS effectiveness
• If a control is stated to be in place for prevention of an MA, then:– Is it implemented?– Is it effective?– Is it audited?– Are the results used for improving the effectiveness of controls
management?

27Items to Note - Emergency Planning
• The MHF must prepare an emergency plan addressing the on-site/off-site consequences
• Must consult with employees and emergency services• Plan should consider
– Accident type (e.g. major/minor, environmental, personal safety, on-site, off-site, property damage)
– Command hierarchy and contact information– Equipment required– Contingency plans
• Plan should be tested, reviewed, updated

SMS - Critical Success Factors
• Adequate resources for both development and improvement• Personnel are aware of their responsibility and accountability• Personnel are trained/competent• Consistent with the understanding of risk gained from the risk
assessment• There should be sufficient focus on MAs, from planning through to
operations• The Employer must document the basis for the facility's SMS, and the
SMS itself
