InFocus OH&S Management System model
The InFocus OH&S Management System model is built around InterSafe’s many years of experience in health and safety and aims for best practice outcomes. It is grounded in the 5 key pieces of data highlighted above. Application of the InFocus model will not only satisfy state and federal requirements but take your business beyond compliance and certification towards current world’s best practice. Our fundamental premise is that successful occupational health and safety management activities are risk based and centred on appropriate and clearly understood leadership and management principles. There is little value in adopting a particular risk based technique, eg review of industry fatality data, if underlying management principles are not in place.
The InFocus model contains seven core areas and is simply represented as a “Hub and Spokes” approach with the first core area being Management and Leadership issues. This defines the “hub”.

InterSafe has also developed a set of 230 audit/assessment criteria for any OH&S Management System. The criterion is based on the structure of the InFocus Model. We can guide you in performing your own internal self-assessment or undertake an independent external audit/assessment. The audit/assessment can cover any or all aspects of the InFocus model.
We also have an extensive range of design standards or, implementation modules, for various aspects of the InFocus model. These standards are readily adapted to meet the specific needs of existing systems within your organisation.
All recommendations for improvement that form part of our audit/assessment report are based on the criteria of being viable, achievable within constraints of capital/cash flow, acceptable to the end user, compatible with the risk being managed, and sustainable over time.
