Safety Management Systems Guidance
Safety Management Systems (SMS) Guidance provides organizations with a structured approach to identifying, assessing, and controlling safety risks. It involves establishing policies, procedures, and responsibilities to proactively prevent accidents and ensure a safe operational environment. By systematically managing safety data, training staff, and continuously monitoring performance, organizations can improve safety outcomes. This guidance helps organizations create a safety culture where safety considerations are integrated into daily activities, reducing risks and ensuring compliance with regulations—ultimately protecting employees, the public, and assets.
