Atlas Physio is happy to conduct Occupational Health and Safety Policy Reviews, or to assist in the development of new OHS Policies. Occupational Health and Safety Policies are like any other policies or foundational documents a business might have, which describe the aim, method, and structure through which a business defines and achieves their goals relating to business and worker safety.

 

Every Policy is an opportunity for a business or department to translate organisational objectives, industry-specific legislation, or best practice into worked procedures that support the efficiency, productivity, competitiveness, and sustainability of a business. Effective policies establish clear procedures for hazard identification, risk mitigation, and emergency response. Policies should be harmonious with a business' other goals and policies, and provide guidance as to how to address challenges and conduct business.

Regular review of business and OHS policies are vital because workplace environments, technologies, and risks evolve over time. A policy that was effective five years ago may no longer adequately address current hazards. By revisiting and refining policies, businesses ensure that safety measures remain relevant, practical, and aligned with industry best practice. This proactive approach is required by law, and protects worker health, enhances productivity, and strengthens organisational efficiency.

​

Developing or reviewing OHS policies requires knowledge of legislation, risk management, and industry-specific practices which may be translated into workable procedures by professionals. Involving trained practitioners ensures that policies are comprehensive, evidence‑based, and tailored to the unique risks of the workplace while leveraging the working and business expertise of staff, management, and consumers.  In this way, OHS policies are not abstract documents but practical tools that safeguard lives and livelihoods.

​
