3. Explain how current health and safety legislation, policies and procedures are implemented in own work setting or service.

Evaluate the role their inventory plays in the company’s performance, operational efficiency, and customer satisfaction.

health and safety procedures and practises should be under continual scrutiny and areas for improvement should be monitored and dealt with. A good method of monitoring & improving are health, safety and security procedures are visually. Check visitors have signed in the visitor’s book, look for items blocking fire exits or hallways, wet signs are in place during cleaning, COSHH cupboards are kept locked, medication trolleys are secure, hoists are clean and stored in a correct storage place. Policies and procedures need to be reviewed regularly to ensure they are still relevant, circumstances in workplace can change and new risk assessments will need to be put in place or old ones reviewed. Policies and procedures may need evaluating and developing

1.2 Identify the lines of responsibility and reporting for health and safety in the work setting

| Explain why and when health and safety control equipment, identified by the principles of protection, should be used, relating to moving, handling and/or storing resources, and the types, purpose and limitations of each type, the work situation, occupational use and the general work environment, in relation to:

You have been asked to contribute to an induction day for new staff. You are to prepare a presentation about Health and Safety. It must include the following:

The safety audit will be performed at a Walmart location in Orangeville, Ontario. It is the biggest retail store worldwide with $482.1 billion in revenue and has 2.3 million associates. As I have worked there for the summer holding an instock position in the back room unloading trucks, I have gained knowledge and understanding on the safety issues and standards that exist within the company.

Identify at least 3-5 potential information security risks that the lab may be exposed to and propose counter measures for addressing those risks. Identify security technology and products that could be used to protect the lab environment from these risks. Use

Task 4Ensuring health and safety is an important responsibility not only for the Managers but all associated with the premises. Evaluate your organisation’s health and safety policy and procedures in line with legislative requirements and propose recommendations on how health and safety should be managed

* Loads were picked up from location A and delivered to one of 5 warehouses, placed on another truck with optimized route for location B (software driven route optimization)

You are the Safety Director at XYZ Widget Company in Anytown, USA. Your new boss has asked you to develop a 1 hour presentation “hitting the highlights” regarding OSHA inspections and violations. Please provide an OUTLINE and EXPLANATION of your presentation.

It is important it have a written work Health and Safety Policy for the organizations and businesses which have management systems. The Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011 addresses Major Hazard Facilities in Regulation 558 and Schedule 17(1.2) and requires that the Safety Management System includes a Safety Policy, including the operator’s broad aims in relation to the safe operation of the major hazard facility, and that the safety policy must include and express commitment to ongoing improvement of all aspects of the safety management system. A Work Health and Safety Policy is an explicit statement of business commitment to work health and safety. It will include a statement outlining the importance which is placed on work health and safety and how it is to be implemented.

Just recently, All Weather Windows Commercial Ltd., has purchased a smaller company with a large glass manufacturing facility. This smaller company has approximately 150 employees that now work under our organization. Throughout this assignment, I will focus on basic safety initiatives to implement into the new facility. The reason I chose to focus on implementing basic safety initiatives, is based on the fact, this new facility is populated with many plant workers and has to now adopt my organization safety program.

Often retailers will overtly protect expensive, top-shelf products, but this may actually result in the increased theft of less secure, bottom-shelf goods. This incidence is referred to as redistributive crime. In retail companies there is a loss prevention (LP) department that is specifically tasked with minimizing product loss, commonly referred to as inventory shrink. LP is implemented to reduce the preventable loss of a company’s assets by utilizing technologies that mitigate theft and fraud. Retailers continuously adapt their technologies to handle threats, but there are still numerous underlying issues, such as employee theft, fraud, and shoplifting. The increase in technology that consumers have access to threaten LP divisions, because they have made it easier for consumers to steal products, such as ink, and this drives LP to make technological progress in order to prevent further inventory shrinkage. However, there are budget constraints, and efficiency problems that arise with newer, more difficult LP technology. This paper aims to evaluate the redistributive crime that occurs by using a case study within a department of goods and analyzing the security measures available to combat this problem. While doing this I will pay particular attention to if the Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) systems are paying for themselves and reducing a significant portion of theft.

Often retailers will overtly protect expensive, top-shelf products, however this may result in increased theft of less secure, bottom-shelf goods. This incidence is referred to as redistributive crime. Retailers prioritize the products they secure and those that they leave unsecured, leading to an increase in the shrink of the items that were of less concern. In most retail companies, there is a loss prevention (LP) department tasked with minimizing product loss, referred to as inventory shrink. LP is implemented to reduce the preventable loss of a company’s assets, like the loss associated with redistributive crime, by utilizing technologies that mitigate theft and fraud. Retailers continuously adapt their technologies to handle threats, but there are still numerous underlying issues, such as employee theft, fraud, and shoplifting. Furthermore, the improved technology that consumers have access to increases their ability to steal products like ink. This drives LP to make technological progress to prevent further inventory shrinkage. However, there are budget constraints and efficiency problems that arise with newer, more complex LP technology. Using a case study of the ink department at Office Depot, this paper will evaluate redistributive crime and analyze the security measures needed to combat such crimes. While doing this, I will pay particular attention to the marginal benefits and marginal costs of the Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) systems in
