Manufacturing consistently appears in the top industries for workplace injuries in Australia, particularly manual handling injuries, machine-related incidents, and chemical exposures. WHS legislation requires manufacturers to systematically identify and control these hazards.

What you need to manage

What manufacturing compliance actually requires

HSES Online is structured around what regulators, auditors, and principal contractors actually ask for. Here is what your safety management system needs to cover.

Mandatory

Incident and injury recording

All workplace injuries and notifiable incidents must be recorded. HSES Online maintains your incident register in a format ready for regulatory review.

Required

Plant and equipment hazards

Hazards associated with machinery and plant must be systematically identified and controlled. Track them in your hazard register with assigned controls.

Required

Chemical and hazardous substance management

Hazardous chemicals must be documented and managed. Store SDS records and link them to relevant hazard entries.

Required

Risk assessment documentation

Risk assessments for manufacturing processes must be documented and kept current. Your risk register provides the structure.

Best practice

Action and corrective measure tracking

Controls and corrective actions need to be assigned, tracked, and verified as effective. The actions module manages this end to end.

Best practice

Safety performance reporting

Generate frequency rate reports for management review, board reporting, and customer or tender requirements.
