Question 1 of 30
Globex Industries, a multinational manufacturing firm, is undergoing a significant restructuring initiative involving the introduction of new automated machinery and revised operational workflows across its production lines. As the lead internal auditor responsible for ISO 45001:2018 compliance, you are tasked with evaluating the organization\'s adherence to the standard\'s requirements regarding worker participation during this change management process. Senior management asserts that consultation with the union representatives and safety supervisors is sufficient to meet the standard\'s obligations. However, concerns have been raised by several floor-level employees regarding potential hazards associated with the new machinery\'s operation and the redesigned workflows. Based on the ISO 45001:2018 standard, which of the following approaches would MOST effectively demonstrate Globex Industries\' commitment to worker participation during this restructuring initiative, ensuring compliance and fostering a culture of proactive safety management?
Establishing a cross-functional team composed of workers from various levels, including floor-level employees, safety representatives, and management personnel, to actively participate in hazard identification, risk assessment, and the development of control measures related to the new machinery and workflows, while also ensuring that adequate resources, information and training is provided to enable participation.
Relying solely on the expertise of the safety supervisors and union representatives to conduct hazard assessments and develop control measures, as they possess the necessary technical knowledge and experience to address potential risks effectively.
Conducting a comprehensive risk assessment after the new machinery and workflows have been implemented, using the findings to retroactively address any identified hazards and implement corrective actions.
Focusing primarily on ensuring compliance with relevant OHS regulations and standards, without necessarily seeking input from floor-level employees, as regulatory compliance is the primary objective of the ISO 45001:2018 standard.
