   • OVERVIEW OF
   • CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT SYSTEMS
   • Background, Justification and Benefits of the Management Approach
5. Slide 5

   The Systems Approach

6. Slide 6

   The Systems Approach

   • Management:
   • The act or manner of managing; handling, direction, or control
   • Generally refers to activities rather than persons
   • Planning activities (e.g., identifying what to manage)
   • Implementing activities (e.g., how you manage)
   • Monitoring and checking (e.g., how well do you manage)
   • Acting on the information (e.g., how can we improve?)
   • System:
   • Combination of things or parts forming a complex or unitary whole
7. Slide 7

   Deming Cycle

   • Based on the scientific method
   • Every run through the cycle should bring you closer to the goals and objectives for the system
   • Continuous improvement rather than “delayed perfection”
8. Slide 8

   The Systems Approach: Framework

   • A framework that helps establish and maintain:
   • A Health and Safety Policy, with explicit commitments
   • Identification of hazards and risks for the organization
   • Identification of applicable legal/other requirements
   • Planning activities across the full range of activities
   • Disciplined processes for achieving objectives
   • Emergency preparedness and response plans
   • Operational controls to ensure performance

    Compliance- versus Systems-Thinking

    • The Systems Approach:
    • Compliance?
    • INPUT
    • OUTPUT
    • STOP
    • INPUT
    • OUTPUT
    • FEEDBACK LOOP
    • Yes!
    • Can we improve?
11. Slide 11

    Compliance Programs versus Management Systems

    • Compliance Programs
    • Management Systems
    • Required by government entities
    • Voluntary
    • Some have feedback loop; others do not require checking or review
    • All have feedback loop requiring review for continual improvement
    • Motivation is often based on a need to avoid bad consequences
    • When done right, motivation tends to be more achievement-oriented
    • Can be proactive or reactive
    • Proactive by design
    • Employee participation during design and improvement often is limited to the compliance experts
    • Employee participation is typically encouraged at all levels in order to promote employee buy-in
12. Slide 12

    Systems-Approach Discussion

    • You’ve just been informed that the members of your company’s emergency response team are required to be trained under HAZWOPER rules (29 CFR 1910.120)
    • From a narrow compliance perspective, how might this awareness be addressed?
    • From a systems perspective, what things might be considered?
13. Slide 13

    The Systems Approach: Summary

    • The Management Systems approach:
    • Integrates all management elements
    • Less redundancy
    • Better performance
    • Is a proven management framework
    • Requires feedback and review mechanisms
    • Promotes continual improvement:
    • As a set of policies and procedures
    • As a mindset, “This is how we do business”

    Why ANSI Z-10?

    • OHSAS 18001 is based on British Standard 8800
    • ANSI Z10 is a US-based model for OHS Systems (better represents US stakeholders)
    • Businesses
    • Labor (ILO-OHS 2001)
    • OSHA
    • ANSI Z10 is compatible with the ISO Quality (ISO 9001) and
    • Environmental (ISO 14001) management system standards
    • US input into possible future ISO OHS standard

    OHSAS 18001 and ANSI Z10

    • OHSAS 18001:2007
    • ANSI Z10:2005
    • BSI-owned, EU consensus standard US national consensus standard
    • OHSAS Project Group: Consortium Z10 Committee: US industries, of 43 organizations from 28
    • industry trade groups, labor, countries, chaired by BSI
    • agencies, standard setting bodies
    • Internationally recognized, can be used for accredited certification
    • Gaining recognition, can be used for accredited certification
    • Elements aligned with ISO 14001
    • Elements compatible with ISO
    • 14001, but some differences
    • In absence of ISO Standard, is leading default global standard
    • Has special significance to US as a national consensus standard
23. Slide 23

    Registrar Observations

    • STR-Registrar LLC ANAB Accredited for
    • 18001/ANSI Z10
    • Bryce Carson, 18001/ANSI Z10 Auditor, observations:
    • Five companies with Z10-accredited certification
    • (02/2010)
    • Hierarchy of controls for ANSI Z10 seem more robust
    • As an auditor, prefers auditing Z10 over 18001
    • Would recommend Z10 over 18001 for US companies
    • 18001 more accepted for companies overseas
24. Slide 24

    ANSI Z10 as US Consensus Standard

    • Possible future adoption by OSHA in lieu of a separate government-unique standard (OMB Circular A-119)
    • Possible enforcement ramifications under the General Duty Clause (GDC) as an industry “standard of care”
    • Might be employed to satisfy requirements of state-plan OSHA programs (e.g., Cal-OSHA)
    • Implementation could justify savings on insurance
    • Implementation may help jumpstart VPP participation
    • Aid in constructing settlement agreements with federal, state-plan OSHA agencies and MSHA
25. Slide 25

    Keys to Successful System Implementation

    • Top management commitment/support
    • Employee participation/buy-in
    • Initial gaps analysis (required by Z10)
    • Dedicated system “Champion”
    • Careful management of human resources
    • Expect and deal positively to challenges
    • Showcase employee achievements
26. Slide 26

    Case Study 1: Trucast

    • Manufacturer of turbocharger wheels for the automotive and power generation industries
    • Small company, approximately 130 employees
    • First company to receive accreditation to ANAB under ANSI/AIHA Z10:2005
    • Improved safety performance and awareness
    • Created a culture of looking to eliminate or minimize safety issues by identifying them, applying hierarchy of controls
    • Ranking of JSAs, annual objectives for safety, annual review
27. Slide 27

    Case Study 2: Nucor Steel

    • 750 Employees in Crawfordsville, Indiana
    • First steel mill in nation to be registered to ANSI
    • Z10
    • First facility in world to be registered to both ANSI Z10 and OHSAS 18001
    • Nucor Corporation has 36 VPP Sites of which 4 are registered to ANSI Z10 and an additional 5 in process of registration
    • Nucor Corporation has had discussions with OSHA in Washington regarding ANSI Z10 as complement to the VPP
28. Slide 28

    Case Study 2: Nucor Steel

    • ANSI implementation involved all functional levels in the development of the OHSAS
    • 100% training on the OHSAS
    • Developed a risk ranking database to assign numeric factor to each hazard assessment submitted by employees
    • The OHSAS creates structure and ensures closure to hazard remediation and compliance
