 • 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. 

As can be seen there are various aspects and based on the need of the company these may be considered for inclusion in SHE Management Plan after due prioritization.

Having looked at the requirements related to Plant and Procedure, now let us see what all one has to consider related to People in SHE Management Plan.

Principles and behaviours that promote continuous SH&E performance improvement through leadership and personal responsibility

 Providing leadership

 Performance management

 Targeted selection / training

 Behaviour Based Safety

 Adherence to procedures

 Participation in SH&E training and activities

 All work-related injuries, illnesses and environmental incidents are preventable

 Safety meetings and networks

 SH&E Charter

 Site Manager Competency Assessments

 SH&E based personal objectives

 Key behaviours: take care of yourself and others; present fit for work; meet customer needs in an environmentally sustainable manner; strive for continuous SH&E improvement

 Encouraging SH&E awareness outside the workplace

I personally tend to believe that while all three P’s have to be equal for stool to remain stable and steady, people related requirements are in reinforced then it helps take care of any deficiencies which may be there under Plant and Procedure

As discussed earlier role as a SHE Leader is first and foremost. You need to set example.

Selection of people for different roles is also critical as people are your extended arms who can help improve safety at work place on their own

Then one needs to change behaviour of people at work place. It sounds easier than what it takes to achieve this! Will see what all tools are there to affect this at work place. Mindset has to be that all injuries are preventable.

Site Manager is leading the initiative at site and his competency is of upper most importance. There has to be a system of evaluating this.

Then each individual has to have their own personal goals and targets towards improving SHE Performance.

Well the realization must be sinking in that a lot needs to be done. But, having said that, it would be possible if these actions are taken up earnestly and given sufficient time.

SHE Performance cannot be improved overnight and therefore one should not lose heart if nothing seems to be improving in the short term.

Problem and the beauty is that SHE Performance improves as you grow – you do not realize!!
