Management systems

For a health and safety enforcing agency to function effectively it needs suitable management systems. The S18 toolkit outlines six elements that make up such systems:

  1. Commitment, priorities and planned interventions
  2. Capacity - resources for an effective service
  3. Management infrastructure
  4. Performance management
  5. Information systems
  6. Competent inspectorate - the right people in the right posts
