Small Medium Industries (SME) are currently getting
an attention due to issues related to Occupational
Safety and Health (OSH) as mass medias are
continuously reporting various accidents at the
workplace which results in deaths. With the
increased number of SME, Malaysia are facing
greater challenges to monitor OSH requirements,
workers safety and health issues. In the SME

Safety and Health (DOSH) target is to increase the
number of OSH practitioners in Malaysia. Therefore,
DOSH take initiative to manifest competent OSH Coordinator, a representative of safety
practitioners in the industries to monitor OSH
requirements. Each employee required to appoint
at least one OSH-Coordinator to manage
Occupational Safety and Health requirements,
assist employer by reporting OSH statistic and
performance to DOSH, promote safety culture at

OSH compliance. This program will be delivered
