CODE OF PRACTICE On Safety Management
- Share to:
In 1995, the Government conducted a comprehensive review of industrial safety with a view to mapping out Hong Kong's long-term safety strategies. The Review concluded that for Hong Kong to achieve high standards of safety and health at work, enterprises must embrace self-regulation and safety management. The Review recommended that the Government should provide a framework within which self-regulation was to be achieved through a company system of safety management.
Against this background, the Government has introduced a safety management system consisting of 14 elements. It has promoted the system through launching pilot schemes, publishing an Occupational Safety Charter, organising seminars and promotional visits, and issuing a Guide to Safety Management.
This system is now enshrined in the Factories and Industrial Undertakings (Safety Management) Regulation [hereinafter called "the Safety Management Regulation"] passed on 24 November 1999.
