“…The simplest and most widely used such tools used and recommended in good practice are those of the checklist type used in already established monitoring systems. [7] -SOR -Safety Observation Report, SOT (Safety Observation Tour), SOS (Safety Observation System), NMR (Near Misses Report) [8], etc. These tools are useful to use periodically and have multiple roles, such as survey, verification, control, proposal collector, feedback, but also the consolidation of a participatory consultative OSH management.…”

In an efficient OSH management system, it is necessary to approach continuous improvement, being recommended the PDCA system (Plan Do Check Act). In Romania, there is well-developed legislation, who establishes measures and actions in the field of OSH. The companies comply by creating an implementation plan, but most of them remain at this stage, without verifying the degree of implementation, with adaptation/updating of the measures. In this paper, we highlight some reference elements that can be periodically probed, so that the OSH management system can have a prompt and justified improvement reaction. The mode of obtaining this information regarding the implemented measures can be achieved through a periodic questionnaire that diagnoses two relevant aspects: 1. workers’ perceptions - which assess the implementation method; 2. the consequences/accidents - that assess the efficiency of the measures and their application/implementation. The two key elements (perception and consequences) will be used by the questionnaire responding workers after the implementation stage. The profile of these respondents is considered, and depending on their age, function, and level of education, the new applicable measures can be dimensioned. Only through continuous, monitored, and adapted improvement can the most effective measures be implemented, so that prevention fulfils its fundamental purpose, to contribute to the predictability and sustainability of an efficient automotive enterprise.

“…Occupational risk assessment should always be verified when there is a change that could affect the perception of risks, when new materials or equipment are introduced or when the organization or working conditions change, including transfer to other workshops or decommissioning of the system [4] [9]. The effectiveness of the risk assessment process https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/202438900001 SESAM 2023 is decisively influenced by the integrity of the initial design or planning of the process approach and development structure, a stage called "goal setting" or "scoping" [5], [6], [7].…”

Globally, the process of assessing the risks to the health and safety of workers is implemented through the use of hundreds of dedicated tools, used in a flexible and complementary way, according to clearly specified criteria. Unfortunately, in the national practice of occupational risk assessment, only one method has become generalized, which is used in a proportion of 90-95%, and the major problem is that often it is not even applied only formally. This paper has an ambitious goal, aiming to offer practitioners in our country a case study on good practice on the procedural structure for achieving and capitalizing on the results of risk assessment, in a manner that is both complex and pragmatic. The concept proposed and successfully implemented at the investigated multinational company, offers a major potential to improve the management of occupational safety and health in economic organizations, regardless of their size, form of ownership or other categories of conditioning.

“…The most important component in maintaining OHS is knowledge about the use of OHS itself for employees related to defining and implementing a good OHS culture. This culture is often present hidden (tacit), and sometimes ignored, until there is awareness of the importance of knowledge management in organizations [5]. OHS is a form of organizational expertise that has tacit and explicit dimensions and lies in ongoing practice [6].…”

“…Therefore, OHS culture is seen as a sustainable value and not just a shift in priorities depending on a particular situation or context. The knowledge transfer process that is most widely used and effective in efforts to develop an OHS culture is through training programs aimed at organizational employees [5].…”

This study aimed to determine the factors that influenced an individual’s understanding of the causes of high cholesterol levels by looking at the characteristics of knowledge, attitudes, behavior, age and education level. Companies can use the results of this study for implementing occupational safety and health programs. The research was conducted at PT Kalimantan Prima Persada (KPP) Indonesia through questionnaires distributed to 76 employees. The results showed that knowledge, attitude, age and level of education did not affect the understanding of increasing cholesterol levels, but behavior did affect the understanding of the causes of increased cholesterol levels. Keywords: Cholesterol Levels, Employees, Occupational Health and Safety (OHS)
