(Newswire.net — November 22, 2013) Brisbane Qld, Qld — Recent legal disputes regarding management’s responsibility in health and safety cases has stirred controversy and debate. Penalties and repercussions associated with infractions are making businesses rethink enterprise risk management plans.

 

According to Lexology.com, “The Hillman and Mallon cases illustrate the important role an officer of an organization plays in managing health and safety for the organization, as well as the serious consequences that can follow if the officer fails to be an active participant in work health and safety matters for the organization.” This makes management training and awareness is critical.

Businesses must mitigate risks to their employees to protect their continued well-being and the success of operations. It is management’s duty to behave in a responsible fashion consistent with applicable health and safety regulations.
