BSBWHS605 Develop, implement and maintain WHS management systems

Assessment 4 - Project 3 - Review and improve the WHSMS

Scenario
It is now March 2021, and six months since the implementation of the WHS management system across the three centres of Endurance Fitness.

The COVID 19 pandemic is on a decline. Endurance Fitness' COVID-19 Safety Action plan has been implemented successfully, and there have been only two cases of COVID-19 reported in the three centres. Endurance Fitness managed these two cases in accordance with the Action Plan. Both these persons have since recovered well.

The objectives of the WHS management system were:
• Minimise incidents of workplace related injury and illness
• Reduce number of days of lost work
• Establish risk management process
• Ensure managers implement WHS policy and WHSMS consistently and effectively
• Ensure employee participation in WHS activities across the organisation

Since the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic did not allow any expansion, Endurance Fitness has maintained status quo in terms of the number of centres. The number of employees has also remained stable. The number of members has also remained stable, with the numbers of in-the-gym members increasing, while online membership numbers are gradually decreasing.

Part A: Consult staff to review WHSMS

The CEO has asked you to collate, review the WHS data of Endurance Fitness, in order to measure and evaluate the performance WHSMS, with a view to improving it.

Write an email to the WHS committee and the CEO of Endurance Fitness to communicate to them the requirements for the review and improvement requirements of the WHSMS, so that they complete their responsibilities for measuring and reviewing the performance of the WHSMS against targets.

In your email, you must:
• inform the committee members about their responsibilities towards monitoring the implementation of the WHSMS, and the information or tools they need to use or refer to collect the evidence of performance

• invite the members of the committee to provide their input into developing an evaluation protocol, seeking their suggestions for evaluation criteria, measurement tools, data collection methods, frequency/ timing, and personnel responsible.

• establish a short timeframe from them to provide their responses (e.g. one week)

Part B: Evaluate and report on WHSMS implementation

Scenario

WHSMS performance data collection plan

Assume that based on the consultation with the managers of the company, you prepared the following WHSMS performance data collection plan to ensure the WHS management system objectives are met.

Task

The CEO has asked you to provide a written evaluation report in no more than 800 words, on the performance of the system.

The report should include the following sections:
• An abstract of the main points of the report
• Methods:
o the WHSMS evaluation protocol used - Objectives, Target, Actions taken Indicator/ monitoring
o a description of data used:
» WHS data from the incident and injury registers for the two periods
» WHSMS implementation data provided
• Body of the report including:
o findings on the achievement of the WHSMS performance results against targets, summarising three areas of poor performance
o a discussion of probable causes of poor performance in each area identified
• Conclusion - a broad summary of gaps in effectiveness of WHSMS, and their causes.
• Recommendations - at least one recommendation for improvement of the performance of the WHSMS against each area of poor performance
• References -sources used, legislation and standards referred to.

Your report should demonstrate your ability to:
• identify complex relationships between ideas and information. It should be written in a style of writing suitable for a formal report format and formal audience
• employ vocabulary, grammatical structure, and conventions appropriate to a report
