Draft health and safety policy
Generated on: June 18, 2025

A draft health and safety policy should include several key components. It should outline a mechanism for employees to report safety and health concerns without fear of reprisal, ensuring timely and appropriate responses to correct these conditions [1]. The policy should also detail procedures for investigating accidents and near-miss incidents to identify root causes and prevent recurrence [1]. Furthermore, it should establish a system for reviewing injury and illness trends to identify and eliminate patterns with common causes [1]. The policy should also include a mechanism for conducting regular in-house safety and health inspections to identify new or previously missed hazards or control failures 1, 20. Finally, the policy must address emergency situations and include written plans and procedures to ensure employee safety during emergencies [1].


Important Safety Note:

Always verify safety information with your organization's specific guidelines and local regulations.
