Example indicators of compliance

Roles and tasks within all functions have been assessed to determine how critical they are to meeting regulatory requirements and contributing to potential business risk.

Detailed analyses have been carried out of those roles and tasks identified as critical to the business and that have the potential to contribute to an accident, incident, business loss or liability etc.

The analysis covers not only process or technical operations but extends to organisational / structural vulnerability e.g. shift systems, handovers, business or business change.

Examples of what this means in practice

Employees can describe how roles and tasks have been assessed against normal and abnormal conditions, emergency situations and maintenance operations.

They will have been prioritised:
Critical / e.g. total cessation of operations, major accident or incident, business loss etc. Important & urgent

Moderate / e.g. no short term crucial issues but some action required.

Minor / e.g. not important or urgent but needs to be routinely reviewed.
