Risk-oriented and Process Approaches are the Basis of the Current Occupational Health and Safety Management System in the Organization

Abstract

Information is provided on the legislative documents of the Russian Federation regulating the activities of organizations in the field of occupational safety. The relevance and expediency of the application of risk-oriented and process approaches at the stage of the development and implementation of the occupational safety management system on the basis of the legislative documents containing mandatory requirements, compliance with which is mandatory in the development of the occupational safety management system. The methodological substantiation of the process approach to the development of an occupational health and safety management system in an organization, based on a systematic approach using the well-known PDCA principle, is given, the basic issues of its applicability are considered. A matrix of processes and sub-processes was compiled in accordance with the typology of processes according to ISO (ISO/TC 176/SC 2/N 544R3), the organization management processes, the processes of measurement, analysis and improvement, the main processes and processes of resource management are given, the processes are ranked by levels. The model was developed for creating an occupational health and safety management system based on risk-oriented and process approaches, the technique of structural analysis and design SADT (Structured Analysis and Design Technique), and functional modeling methodology IDEF0. The development was carried out concerning the main context diagram of the process of creating an occupational health and safety management system in the IDEF0 notation. The decomposition of processes of the second and third levels is presented, and all their functional relationships are described. It is demonstrated that the risk-oriented and process approaches used in the design of the occupational health and safety management system make it possible to structure the composition of processes, clearly define the input and output parameters of processes, process participants, resources, and ensure control and adjustment of processes.
