Occupational Safety and Health has its local and international versions to
keep the workers in safe condition around the world every time they’re in the
workplace. However, as the Consman Engineers Group reports about the OSH
Policy and Safety Statement, I have realized that the company is also responsible for
creating OSH Policy Statement for their workers. In the first place, I thought that the
company only rely on what is the country’s OSH Law. Nonetheless, this statement
differs in every organization knowing the fact that the OSH Policy Statement of the
company reflects its size, nature, and habits of it. As a result, different health and
safety policies have occurred in various companies. All of these policies will be
delivered to all of the workers for them to implement it on their own to achieve a
healthful work environment.
If all of the preparation has been done like having risk assessment, safety
assessment, and creating OSH Policy Statement but still workers didn’t obey,
violations will enter. And because of the example of the Consman Engineers Group
of violation in the company where they conducted their on-the-job training, it gives
me an idea that there will be verbal warning, letters, and fines involved when
committing violations. In addition, I also remember that employees should be given a
rebuttal stage where he/she can say their reasons why he/she committed that act.
However, the reason for being ignorant of the policies is often used and not
acceptable because companies didn’t fail to remind employees about these rules.
On a final note, all of these policies will still depend on the workers because
like what they say “knowing safety is not enough, practice it!”
