address the risks connected with hazardous manual activities and monitor the risks of employees
[email protected]
developing musculoskeletal illnesses. When we talk about hazardous manual tasks, we're talking
about the kind of employment where a person has to lift, lower, push, pull, carry, or otherwise
move, hold, or constrain any person, object, or product that demands a lot of force or repetitive
movement. This kind of danger has a direct effect on the physical body and can result in
significant harm. Person conducting a business or designers, importers and other parties are
responsible for workers health and safety in hazardous manual task.
According to WHS Act section 19, Person conducting the business must eliminate the risk
associated with hazardous manual task as far as possible, if complete elimination is not possible
then PCBUs should minimize the risk. PCBUs should consult with the workers about their health
and safety issues before assigning the work to the employees.
Similarly, WHS Act Part 2 Division 3 states further duties of PCBUs for ensuring workers safety in
hazardous manual tasks. As per the rule designers and manufactures shall provide information on
the specification of the plant or structure to each person provided with design, plant or structure
that removes or minimizes the need for any dangerous manual assignment.
Additionally, WHS Act section 27 describes the duty of officers which states that officers should
ensure that PCBUs are following WHS rules and regulations regarding hazardous manual tasks.
Moreover, WHS Act section 29 describes the duties of other persons at the workplace like visitors
who shall take reasonable care of themselves. Similarly, they must not do activities which can
seriously hamper the health of the workers performing hazardous manual tasks. So, PCBUs
should provide appropriate training to ensure safety of workers by providing information
regarding nature of work, risk associated with the assignment, possible control measure
implemented and other relevant information.

29. Why do WHS statistics need to be reviewed and reported on?
[email protected]
ANS: Worker’s health and safety WHS statistics is basically reports that shows overall standards of the
safety practices that are formulated and implemented by the organizations. WHS statistics provides an
overview of the latest national data and information on workers’ health and safety and compensation
claims made. WHS statistics provides the information regarding the issues with workers health and
safety, number of incidents occurred on particular year, nature of the incidents and various other facts
and figures related to WHS. Continuous review and reporting of WHS statistics help in identification of
most occurring hazard at workplace leading to formulation and implementation of strategies
accordingly. So, WHS statistics needs to be reviewed and reported on time.
30. Discuss how the following are used when developing monitoring reports and making
recommendations for change:
 agendas for and minutes of meetings: Meeting minutes are basically summary of a meeting.
Agenda and minutes of meeting helps in development of WHS report as minute includes all
the agenda and final summary of meetings. Meetings regarding WHS issues leads in
formation of benchmark for attaining WHS targets, if those targets are not met then further
recommendations and discussions can be done in next meeting.
 committee members: committee members formulate and implement WHS strategies.

Number of committee member varies as per the nature or number of employees of
particular organization, but regardless of the number committee members can identify the
WHS issues and can implement strategies to eradicate or minimize those issues
 consultation decisions and follow-up actions: consultation regarding WHS, leads an

Individual to know about their rights and responsibilities in work place. Consultation and
regular follow up can help in decrement in WHS issues as more the worker consults more
he/she becomes aware about the WHS standards and regulations, leading to overall
development of the WHS report.
 consultation processes: During consultation process consultant and worker talks to each
other regarding health and safety issues in workplace, there is mutual communication
between both the parties, which can lead in developing WHS report
 diaries of meetings: diaries of meetings are rough sketch of the issues discussed in meeting;
meeting diaries can be a good source of information leading to development of WHS report.
 WHS information provided to personnel: WHS information plays an important role in health
and safety of workers, more the information is provided more the employees will be aware
regarding health and safety issues. If employee becomes more aware about WHS issues then
hazards can be minimized and safety of worker can be ensured.
 risk controls: risk control generally means taking actions to health and safety risk, preventing
health and safety risk plays an important role in workers life. Risk control generally involves
three stages and they are elimination of hazard, substitution of hazard and reduction in
[email protected]
exposure to hazard. All of the mentioned steps help in ensuring health and safety of the
workers and also in preparation of WHS report.
 safe work practices: safe work practices mean working in a safe environment, safe working
practices also leads in elimination or reduction of work hazards. Following safe working
protocols in organization can ensure health and safety of workers. So, safe working practices
also helps in formulation of WHS reports.
31. Identify three reasons there is a need for workplaces to establish and maintain records regarding
risk assessments including risk control actions that have been implemented.
ANS:
 To prevent repetitive risk.
 To formulate effective risk control and assessment plan and strategy.
 To prevent work hazards and promote workers health and safety.
32. Identify five examples of details that need to be maintained regarding WHS training plans
developed by an organisation for their employees.
ANS:

 Targeted workplace
 Training plan
 Discussion that was made
