Question 1 of 30
Precision Dynamics, a manufacturing company, is integrating a new automated production line, introducing complex human-machine interaction and cybersecurity risks. The existing Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS), certified under ISO 45001:2018, needs updating. Kaito Ishikawa, the newly appointed OHS Manager, is tasked with ensuring the updated OHSMS effectively addresses the new risks while maintaining compliance. The company operates under stringent local regulations regarding machine safety and data protection. Considering the principles of ISO 45001:2018, which of the following approaches should Kaito prioritize to most effectively manage the changes and ensure worker safety and regulatory compliance during the integration of the new automated production line?
Conduct a comprehensive risk assessment involving hazard identification, risk evaluation, and control measure implementation based on the hierarchy of controls, emphasizing engineering controls and safe work procedures, and ensure continuous monitoring and improvement, while fostering a strong safety culture with worker participation and consultation, complying with all relevant occupational health and safety legislation.
Focus primarily on updating the documented information related to the OHSMS to reflect the new equipment and processes, ensuring that all documents are readily accessible to employees and regulatory authorities, and conduct a one-time training session for all employees on the new procedures.
Delegate the responsibility for risk assessment and control measure implementation to the equipment vendors and rely on their expertise to ensure the safety of the new automated production line, while conducting periodic inspections to identify any obvious hazards or non-conformities.
Implement a reactive approach, addressing safety concerns and incidents as they arise, and rely on the company's existing insurance policies to cover any potential liabilities related to worker injuries or equipment damage.
