How will you and your company eliminate and reduce the risk of your workers developing dermatitis?
Clear arrangements should help you to manage risks systematically, and monitor whether control measures are still effective.
Ask these questions - the answers will help you decide on your arrangements - and record what you are going to do clearly and concisely:
| Purpose/aim | What will the arrangements achieve? |
|---|---|
| Scope | Who do the arrangements affect? |
| Legal duties | What are the legal duties?
|
| Objective(s) and targets | What are the objectives and how can you measure progress? It is important to choose objectives and set sensible targets to measure progress and where relevant, to specify and measure a baseline to assess how much progress has been made. |
| Risk control measures | Can you eliminate the risks? If not, how can you reduce them? |
| Information and training | How can you train and encourage your workforce to reduce the risks? |
| Monitoring | How will you check that the arrangements manage risk effectively? |
| Health surveillance | How and when will you monitor the health of those who are still exposed to a risk? |
| Audit and review | When and how will you review the arrangements? |
