How to ...
write a consultation statement
Definition:
An OHS Consultation Statement records the OHS consultation
arrangements that the employer has made to meet, in consultation with
employees, the employer's obligations of the OHS Regulation Clause 27.
The OHS Consultation Statement should record:
- the OHS consultative arrangements
- how the OHS consultative arrangements were arrived at
- how employees will be consulted about OHS
The OHS Consultation
Statement may also record:
- the employer's commitment to protecting the safety and health of employees
- the role and responsibilities of management with respect to OHS
- the role of the OHS Committee and OHS representatives with respect to OHS
- the dispute resolution procedure in relation to OHS matters
- when and how the OHS consultation arrangements will be reviewed
- the methods of nomination, election and replacement of employee OHS Committee members
The OHS Consultation Statement
should be made available to employees and displayed in a place where employees
will readily see it.
