 SH&E is a line management responsibility. Ownership and accountability for SH&E performance is embedded in the line at all levels and Line Managers are responsible for providing SH&E leadership and for development and implementation of SH&E management plans for their areas of responsibility. 

Clearly compliance with all local regulations is mandatory. Line accountability in the company should be explicit.

Training & Development

Central to SH&E strategy is that appropriate training is in place to equip all personnel to carry out their tasks so as to take care of themselves and others. And therefore it forms an important ingredient of SHE Management Plan.

There are standard SHE Training modules available concerning SH&E Leadership. The following categories and roles of business leaders across the organisation should first be subjected to these trainings:
• Senior Manager  & Business Management Leadership.
• Operations Managers and Senior Manufacturing / Production Leadership.
• Commercial / Business Product Manager Leadership.

It is the responsibility of the Business to nominate the appropriate personnel for training and to ensure training records are maintained.

It is essential that all new Managers, either upon joining the company or for those moving into new senior manager/leadership roles, attend within the first year of appointment. These courses aim to explore and develop the "leadership" characteristics of SH&E within the various roles, as opposed to delivering solely the technical aspects of SH&E.

Additionally, all Site Managers has to undergo an initial Site Manager’s Competency Assessment, and preparation of a development plan. Follow up assessments are determined based on the initial assessment and any role changes.

The SH&E Department will provide an annual program of the SH&E Leadership Training suite.
SHE Training is not something which is once done and then forgotten. Refresher training is a must for sustenance of SHE performance and this should be considered while drawing up training calendar.

As we are moving forward SHE Management Plan is taking a shape already!
