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 strategic plan 2020, Department of Occupational
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 workplace and take
reasonable action pertaining to OSH compliance. This program will be delivered
theoretical and practical.
