  7. Development of Occupational Health and Safety

  8. Development of Safety Management System Hong Kong Industrial Safety Review in 1995 - to achieve high standards of safety and health at work. Pointed out - “the tradition of industrial safety culture in Hong Kong has been weak” Suggested - encouraging self-regulation through a safety management system.

  9. Construction Safety Legislation Safety Legislation Based on the UK Practice: • Factories and Industrial Undertakings (Safety Management) Regulation It imposes obligations on the duty holders to implement an appropriate safety management system for improving the safety performance of the workplace. It also prescribes the requirements to conduct safety audits or reviews periodically.

  10. Development of Safety Management System The general duties of employers were laid out in the Health and Safety at Work Act (1974) in the United Kingdom and were further enforced by the requirements of the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1992. This Regulation, which came into operation in 1993, required proprietors to set up a safety management system in their workplaces.

  11. Development of Safety Management System In U.K. from Enforcement Approach (Before 1974 Establish Regulation to Focus on Specific Operation) Trend to Self-regulation Approach (General Duties in 1974 & Safety Management System in 1992). In H.K. from Enforcement Approach (Before 1989 Establish Regulation to Focus on Specific Operation) Trend to Self-regulation Approach (General Duties in 1989 & Safety Management System in 1999)

  12. Development of Safety Management System Self-regulation is defined as “the active involvement of the employers and employees, with minimum government intervention, to look after the safety and health matters in their own workplaces by implementing a safety management system in order to identify hazards, to work out preventive measures and to implement controls”. Dawson, Poynter & Stevens (1983)

  13. Development of Safety Management System Pees, J. (1988) divided self-regulation into three categories -- total self-regulation (or voluntary self-regulation), mandated full self-regulation and mandated partial self-regulation.

  14. Development of Safety Management System Total self-regulation involves the establishment of codes of practice and enforcement techniques within industries or professions which are quite independent from the government.

  15. Development of Safety Management System In mandated full self-regulation, the government requires industries to establish a regulatory system with details of the regulations and the methods of enforcement determined by the industries.

  16. Development of Safety Management System In mandated partial self-regulation, industries are required to specify at least some of the rules and / or to carry out some of the enforcement actions.

  17. Development of Safety Management System Introducing the Safety Management Regulations in Hong Kong, is pushing forward a move from mandated partial self-regulation to mandated full self-regulation.

  18. Development of Safety Management System The legislation aims to foster self-regulation and enhance co-operation between employers and employees. Proprietors of specific industrial undertakings and construction contractors of construction sites are required to implement safety management systems and conduct safety audits or safety reviews. This idea has come into operation with the introduction of the Factories and Industrial Undertaking (Safety Management) Regulation in April 2002.
