In this video, we’ll be diving into Element 1.3, and we’ll be exploring the following key topics:

Roles of directors/managers/supervisors
How top management can demonstrate commitment by:
- making resources available to design, implement and maintain the occupational health and safety management system
- defining roles and responsibilities
- appointing senior managers with specific responsibility for health and safety
- appointing competent people (internal and external, including specialists) to help the organisation meet its health and safety obligations
- reviewing health and safety performance
- Responsibilities of organisations who share a workplace to work together on health and safety issues (C155 Article 17, R164 Recommendation 11)

How clients and contractors should work together:
- the duties they owe each other (‘Safety and health in construction’, ILO Code of Practice – Chapter 2)
- effective planning and co-ordination of contracted work
- pre-selection and management of contractors.
