Carrying out a Management Review

Key features of the annual self-assessment

Using the self-assessment as part of the management review

Who does the management review?

The purpose of the review is for senior management to be able to have visibility of the performance of systems and arrangements they have in place to manage risks. Ideally, the nominated senior manager for occupational risk would be responsible for ensuring the review is undertaken and reported to the senior management team.

What is involved?

In order to assist managers to carry out a management review a self assessment tool has been developed. By answering the questions in the self assessment and giving a score from 0 100%, with 100% being fully compliant, a picture can be built of how the area being assessed is performing.

The assessment will be subjective but should be based on knowledge and evidence collated throughout the year eg from safety committees minutes and quarterly performance reports etc. The guidance associated with each question will help the assessor to make a judgement of where on the scale they think they are. The tool will generate a report based on the answers which can be used to determine key objectives and actions for improvement.

Timetable

The management review should be carried out annually. The results from the self assessment undertaken in September should be discussed at each Divisional Management Board/senior management team, ideally around October, with key decisions about improvement actions being fed into the following years action plan. The results across all divisions/key management areas will be used as input to the following years BBC annual objectives and plan along with other key inputs e.g. the risk register in Magique.
