Risk management helps to identify safety and health hazards at workplaces so that appropriate actions can be taken to eliminate or reduce the risks associated with these hazards. It is a systematic approach to help workplaces reduce risks at source.
Under the Workplace Safety and Health (Risk Management) Regulations, all workplaces are required to implement comprehensive risk assessment for work processes, with detailed plans to reduce or minimise workplace safety and health risks at source, where reasonably practicable.
The Risk Management Assistance Fund (RMAF) was introduced to help Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) implement risk management. Find out more about the Fund:
