Let me give it to you straight up: law firms are not set up to help you with this. They're designed to help you in the event of non-compliance, if and when a problem occurs. Here, the potential for serious fines and imprisonment means that the defense work is valuable, to you and to them, too. The prevention work, not so much (for the law firms). Law firms and legal advisors have a role to play, of course, but with regard to compliance management and the design of compliance systems, it's limited. The work that needs to be done involves the design, build-out and operation of a system for addressing the risks not only of prosecution, but rather the fundamental issues of health and safety. Compliance in this area requires addressing culture as well as conduct and it's important that evidence of the same be generated and managed, as well, not only for the regulators or your defense case in the event of an accident, but also for continuous improvement. There's no "Safe Harbor" but neither is this a "Strict Liability" regime, and a well-functioning management system goes a long way towards effectively managing risks as well as providing you with evidence that "shows your work." Most companies elect to pursue ISO 45001: 2018 (Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems, Requirements with Guidance for Use) in order to build a system for managing these risks, including with regard to prosecution under Korea's SAPA (Serious Accidents Punishment Act). Ask your law firms to help with the legal aspects of the management system standard, such as Sections 4.1, 6.1.1 and 6.1.3, but the design, build-out and operations of the management and compliance systems are jobs for the in-house team, in cooperation with many other parts of the organization, especially the workers. Finally, if you don't have an in-house capacity for compliance, now would be a very good time to create one. See also: https://lnkd.in/gB4DRcVW and https://lnkd.in/gUfz5tAe https://lnkd.in/g9vRKawW

🔒 The Importance of Addressing Safety Concerns: Risks of Ignoring or Deferring Issues 🔒 Ignoring or deferring safety concerns can have severe consequences for organisations. While it may provide temporary relief, it exposes the organisation to significant risks and liabilities. Workplace accidents, injuries, or legal penalties can have far-reaching financial and reputational impacts. Regulations and laws regarding safety do not disappear over time; they require proactive attention and compliance. It is crucial for organisations to recognize the long-term implications of neglecting safety issues and the potential harm it can cause to employees and the business itself. Let's prioritise safety and protect our teams and businesses. 🛡️ Get in toch and see how Fastline Can help your business! 📞 0333 733 8024 📧 info@fastlineservices.co.uk #WorkplaceSafety #RiskManagement #EmployeeWellbeing #SafetyFirst #Compliance #BusinessContinuity #OccupationalHealth #SafetyMatters #ProactiveSafety #ProtectYourTeam

Senior EHSS Consultant at Tonkin + Taylor | Promoting Safety Culture & Mental Wellbeing for Thriving Teams
In a recent article, Brooke van Velden highlights a growing concern: WorkSafe’s lack of clear guidance is leaving businesses in the dark. Instead of receiving support, many companies feel the looming threat of prosecution. This fear doesn’t stem from negligence but from unclear expectations. Businesses want to create safe environments, but without proper direction, they risk falling into non-compliance. It’s time for change. Regulators must shift from punitive measures to providing clear, practical support that helps businesses protect their workers and stay compliant. Read more about this here:

A pair of recent Supreme Court decisions are likely to have a significant effect on #OSHA and other federal safety agencies. However, the court also denied a challenge to OSHA’s authority to regulate #workplace #safety. How do you think this ruling will impact OSHA's ability to enforce safety standards, and what might this mean for both employers and employees in terms of #workplacesafety? Will we see a shift in how safety #regulations are developed and implemented? Would love to hear your thoughts. https://lnkd.in/dTfRhPbZ #AICC #NARFA #workerscompensation #safetytips #safetyculture #workerscomp #claimsmanagement #losscontrol #hazards #legislation #legal #supremecourt #federal

Interesting case to watch as it will set a legal precedent under the tough health and safety law following the Pike River mine disaster. The prosecutors acknowledged the case was the first of its kind in which a large corporate chief executive had faced health and safety charges for "not exercising their influence and control". It will test Parliament's "express intention" in its Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 to promote accountability of officers in senior leadership positions - "especially those at a distance from day-to-day operational and safety decision-making because of their seniority". https://lnkd.in/gWjXfZyZ.
