21 OHS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

A policy on a website is documentation. A completed form with an owner and a date is evidence.

HOW PROVEN IS BUILT

PROVEN

GOSPEL’s safety system. How it runs. Section 21 is the map.

POLICIES

GOSPEL-POL. The rules. Library 13.

PROCEDURES

Numbered methods in the sections and the SWP library.

SWPs / PRACTICES

SWPs are steps. Practices are the standing rules in 01, 06, 07 and 12. SJPs are this lift.

FORMS

GOSPEL-FRM. How evidence is collected. Library 16 and the form builder.

RECORDS

Completed forms, reports, logs, minutes. Proof the system ran.

REVIEW / CORRECTIVE ACTION

FRM-014. Finding → owner → date → done → verified.

CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

POL-016. Management review. COR audit. This program revised when the lesson is real.

WHEN A FORMAL PROGRAM IS REQUIRED

OHS Regulation 3.1: a 3.3 program is required if the employer has 20 or more workers and at least one workplace with a moderate or high hazard rating under Schedule 3-A, or 50 or more workers. An officer can also require one. Crane and rigging work is high-hazard work. This written program exists because the work requires it. The COR® table below is a document map for that framework. If a workplace the employer controls is below the 3.1 threshold, 3.2 still requires monthly meetings with workers and a record of what was discussed — GOSPEL-FRM-033. This program is not an excuse to skip that.

WORKSAFEBC 3.3

Each row is a 3.3 element. Documentation is the rule. The form collects evidence. The record is what an auditor or an officer can be shown.

BCCSA COR® — 14 ELEMENTS

BCCSA uses the COR® OHS National Audit Document. The CFCSA Accreditation Standard names 14 elements. Passing scores (80% overall, 50% per element) are for the audit, not for this page. This table is the document map. Implementation is the completed record.
