Plans
Background to health and safety plans
The University has a certified occupational health and safety management system. As part of this system, the University must set objectives and targets for continuous improvement of its safety performance. This process is described in the Health & Safety: Plans requirements.
University-wide health and safety plans
The University-wide health and safety plan is endorsed by senior committees, and progress towards meeting the objectives and targets is also reported to those committees. A summary of achievements is also reported publicly in the University of Melbourne Annual Report.
Budget Division OHS Plans
Each budget division must have their own OHS plan that sets out how they will contribute to meeting the objectives and targets in the University-wide plan. Progress should be reported to the budget division OHS committee.
