4. HSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (HSEMS)

4.a STRUCTURE OF THE HSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The HSEMS is structured as shown below.



The HSE Manual provides an overview of the HSE Management System in EMCO. While
formulating this manual, extensive involvement of various levels of people was considered.
After they were formulated, all employees were informed of these and their feedback was
obtained through tool box talks.

Different sections are arranged sequentially, in-line with the clause / sub-clause numbers of
ISO 14001:2004 and OHSAS: 18001:2007 standards.

The System Procedures(SP) provide further detail on how the requirements of the
respective clauses of the OHSAS 18001 & ISO 14001 standards are fulfilled in the
HSEMS of EMCO.

The General Procedures(GP) detail the EMCO specific requirements to be implemented to
reinforce the implementation of system procedures.

The Operational Control Procedures(OCP) describe the implementation requirements, at
the work locations, of all the critical activities for which the absence of a procedure may
lead to major deviations.

The Risk/Aspect Impact assessments are the back bone of our HSEMS, in which the
hazards/aspects in all our activities, services have been identified to manage them
effectively. These assessments are an ongoing process and are reviewed and revised as per
the respective system procedures.

The Registers include the Risk register, Aspect/Impact register as well as the Legal
registers. All these registers are reviewed and updated as detailed in the respective system
procedures.

The Permits, Formats and Checklists are prepared to comprehensively implement the
requirements stated above, at the work locations. This is an exhaustive list that covers all
the applicable equipment, activities, services and locations. The contents in this section are
referred against the respective system and general procedures as well as in the applicable
risk/aspect/impact assessments and are reviewed/updated appropriately.
All controlled copies of manual are issued by the Management Representative and
approved by the Divisional head. Signatures appear only in the revision record of each
section of the management system, indicated in Figure 1, but not in all pages of the
respective documents.

The current revision number and revision dates are indicated on each page. Whenever any
section is revised, the revision number of that page of the corresponding section is
incremented by 1. After at least 11 revisions are made, the whole manual is re-issued by
increasing the issue number by 1 and keeping revision number as 0 in all the sections.
This HSE-MS Manual is available only in English language.
