In many workplaces, the Health & Safety Committee or Health & Safety Representatives are workers whom have a passion to improve safety within their workplace. They are often coaxed to undertake the role due to their previous history/background with the company or their proactive approach to showing safety leadership within the business. However, for many people entering this role it can be daunting how much they need to learn about the running of an effective committee or representative role and being organised is key.
As such, I have developed a sample compendium Table of Contents pack for new Health & Safety Representatives or Health & Safety Committee members. Please feel free to use this as a template and tailor this for your workplace. Many workplaces offer a "pack" to their new Health & Safety Representatives and/or Health & Safety Committees and this sample table of contents may be useful as a starting point for establishing such for your workplace. The full details of each heading are not included in the sample but I can assist your company to establish the working document if this is required.
