Question 1 of 30
\"SafeTech Solutions,\" a multinational engineering firm, recently implemented ISO 45001 and is using ISO 45002:2023 as guidance for its OHSMS. During an internal audit, several non-conformities were identified in the fabrication department, including inadequate machine guarding and insufficient training on hazardous material handling. The audit report also highlighted a near-miss incident involving a falling object in the warehouse, indicating a potential weakness in the existing safety procedures. The management team is now convening for a management review meeting to address these findings and ensure continuous improvement of the OHSMS. Considering the principles of ISO 45002:2023, what should be the MOST appropriate course of action for \"SafeTech Solutions\" to demonstrate a commitment to continuous improvement and address the identified non-conformities and potential risks?
Implement corrective actions to address the root causes of the identified non-conformities in the fabrication department, develop preventive actions to mitigate the risk of falling objects in the warehouse, and establish measurable objectives and targets for OHS performance improvement based on the audit findings and near-miss incident.
Focus solely on rectifying the specific non-conformities identified in the fabrication department, such as improving machine guarding and providing additional training, without investigating the underlying causes or considering preventive measures for other potential hazards.
Prioritize addressing the near-miss incident in the warehouse by implementing stricter enforcement of existing safety procedures, while postponing corrective actions for the fabrication department until the next scheduled audit to avoid disrupting production schedules.
Delegate the responsibility for implementing corrective actions and preventive measures to the health and safety representatives in each department, without providing additional resources or management oversight, to empower workers and promote a bottom-up approach to safety improvement.
