Assigning Occupational Risk Responsibility Levels in SAP: Guidance for Managers

Assigning H&S Responsibility Levels in SAP

Changes to SAP that will affect the recruitment process

Recruitment and core responsibilities - Allocation of a responsibility level

(NB: Text appearing in italics features in the Glossary at the end of this section.)

Purpose

To inform all managers about some important changes to the recruitment process related to the allocation of occupational risk (OR) responsibilities.

Background

myRisks is a web-based system which enables staff to access occupational risk management information (health, safety, security, fire and environment information) relevant to them. An updated version will be released shortly including a new risk assessment module, a myResponsibilities module and several other minor changes. A screen shot from myResponsibilities appears below, showing the tabulated pages available:

Responsibility level

Occupational risk responsibilities in myRisks are allocated on the principle that everyone in the BBC has some level of responsibility even people without a managerial role. Core responsibilities are allocated to all staff based upon their responsibility level. The level information for every employee is saved in a new field in SAP.

myRisks links to SAP

The myRisks system will receive regular updates from SAP to maintain the latest user information. From now on, when SAP records are added or changed they must include an appropriate OR responsibility level. Otherwise the responsibility portfolio in myRisks for the corresponding users will be incorrect.

This involves changes to HR and Recruitment processes that might affect you. Please read the next sections for more information.
