35、 system 5.1.1 General requirements In order to manage health and safety effectively, the organization should plan and coordinate its approach. The cornerstone of this approach is the health and safety management system. The health and safety management system should include: a) a safety policy; b) t
36、raining and competency requirements (see Clause 12); c) procedures for dealing with non-conformances and corrective actions; d) risk assessment; e) Pool Safety Operating Procedures (PSOPs) consisting of normal operating plans (NOPs) and emergency action plans (EAPs); f) maintenance of records and pr
37、ocesses to monitor, measure, review and improve the health and safety management policy. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/Exchange China Standards Information Centre, 15 November 2004, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIPAS 65:2004 BSI 2 November 2004 5 5.1.2 Safety policy The organization should define and docu
38、ment a policy for the general operation and safety of the swimming pool. This is often referred to as the Normal Operating Plan (NOP). The organization should ensure that this policy is communicated, implemented and maintained throughout the relevant parts of the organization. NOTE The NOP may be in
39、tegrated with other aspects of the organizations business in order to demonstrate an integrated approach to health and safety management. 5.1.3 Non-conformance and corrective and preventive action The organization should establish and maintain procedures for defining responsibility and authority in
40、order to deal with non-conformances and potential non-conformances in a timely and appropriate fashion. This should include: a) handling and investigating non-conformances; b) taking action to mitigate any impacts from non-conformances; c) initiating and completing corrective and preventive action.
41、Any corrective or preventive action taken to eliminate the causes of actual or potential non-conformances should be appropriate to the magnitude of the problem and commensurate to the risk. Records should be maintained of significant non-conformances and corrective or preventive action taken. 5.1.4
42、Monitoring, measurement and analysis, review and improvement 5.1.4.1 Monitoring The organization should define the routine performance monitoring requirements for the operation of the pool. These requirements should be suitable and sufficient to provide useful data on compliance to required standard
43、s. This might include routine patrols of the pools and ancillary areas to monitor for hygiene, housekeeping, user behaviour and lifeguard performance. 5.1.4.2 Measurement and analysis Measuring the adequacy of the operating system and the degree of compliance to established operating standards is cr
44、ucial and this should include: a) assessment of individual (e.g. lifeguard) and overall operational performance; b) compliance to operational plans, procedures and performance requirements; c) the success (or otherwise) of corrective and preventive actions; d) the management of incidents and emergen
45、cies; e) feedback from users of the pool and other stakeholders on pool safety issues. 5.1.4.3 Review The organization should formally review the operation of the health and safety management system to ensure it is achieving the defined safety policy objectives. This review should be carried out at
46、planned intervals of normally no less than one year. NOTE Evidence can be provided of pool safety performance from the measurement process. 5.1.4.4 Improvement The review should include assessing opportunities for improvement and the need for changes to the pool health and safety management system t
47、o ensure it remains suitable, adequate and effective. NOTE This might include updating NOPs in response to new industry guidance or revised training programmes or improved record keeping.
