Section 20 of the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 mandates organizations to develop a written program aimed at ensuring:
• The safety and health of employees during their work.
• The safety and health of individuals who may be present at the workplace, encompassing customers, visitors, and the public.
The Safety Statement serves as a solemn commitment to their safety and health. It should articulate the employer’s strategy for guaranteeing safety and health, outlining the required resources for upholding and reviewing compliance with safety and health laws and standards.
