Monitoring

We all have a responsibility for our own safety, that of our colleagues and anyone else that may be affected by the work that we do.  No-one should be required to do something that they feel is unsafe, nor should they allow others to be put at risk.

 

We have a duty to monitor safety.  If something isn't right, speak out.

 

Managers have a specific responsibility to formally monitor the activities they manage to make sure safety measure are being applied.

 

This guidance is intended for anyone in the BBC who has managerial responsibility for ensuring that safety is managed in the activities under their control whether it is by people in their direct line or third parties over whom they have control (for example contractors).
