DEVELOP HSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM BY YOURSELF
🧩 Acquire Knowledge & Skills to Develop an Effective HSE Management System (HSEMS)
Expert Guidance by M. S. Akhter – ISO-Certified System Developer & Professional HSE Mentor
With over 40 years of global HSE experience, I have personally developed and implemented complete HSE Management Systems for numerous organizations, especially in Middle East hydrocarbon, construction, oil & gas, and industrial sectors. These systems were successfully certified to ISO 45001 and ISO 14001 standards, and I have trained entire project teams to run, audit, and continually improve them.
Here is the knowledge and skillset I teach to professionals and organizations seeking to build, implement, and sustain their own HSE Management Systems from start to certification and beyond:
✅ 1. Understanding the ISO Framework (ISO 45001 & ISO 14001)
What you learn:
Deep understanding of ISO 45001:2018 and ISO 14001:2015
The Plan–Do–Check–Act (PDCA) cycle
Clause-by-clause interpretation and relevance to site activities
Integration of OHS and EMS elements for a unified system
Why it matters:
It forms the foundation of any structured, certifiable HSE Management System.
✅ 2. Gap Analysis & System Baseline Assessment
What you learn:
How to conduct an HSE gap analysis using ISO criteria
Identifying missing procedures, documents, and legal controls
Interviewing departments and reviewing site practices
Preparing gap reports and action plans
Why it matters:
This is the first step in building a system tailored to the company’s operations and risks.
✅ 3. HSE Policy and Objective Setting
What you learn:
Drafting strong, realistic, and legally compliant HSE Policies
Developing SMART objectives based on risk, compliance, and improvement needs
Linking objectives to KPIs and departmental goals
Why it matters:
The policy defines your company’s commitment; objectives drive continual improvement.
✅ 4. Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Control (HIRAC)
What you learn:
Creating formal HIRA processes
Task-based risk assessments and activity-specific controls
Risk matrix development and documentation
Linking HIRA to safe work procedures and PTW systems
Why it matters:
Risk control is the heart of any HSE system—done wrong, the system fails.
✅ 5. Legal and Other Requirements
What you learn:
Identifying local, national, and international legal HSE requirements
Building a Legal Register
Tracking compliance status
Preparing for third-party legal audits
Why it matters:
Certification auditors will verify that the system ensures legal compliance at all levels.
✅ 6. Documented Information & HSEMS Procedures
What you learn:
Creating and structuring core HSEMS documents:
HSE Manual
Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
Risk Registers
Emergency Plans
Inspection & Audit Checklists
Document numbering, version control, and access control
Why it matters:
A well-documented system ensures clarity, traceability, and operational discipline.
✅ 7. Roles, Responsibilities, and Organizational Safety Structure
What you learn:
Developing a clear HSE organizational chart
Defining responsibilities at all levels (managers, supervisors, workers)
Safety committee structures and meeting procedures
Delegation of authority for safety compliance
Why it matters:
No system works without defined roles and accountability.
✅ 8. Operational Control & Safe Work Procedures
What you learn:
Identifying key operations and related risks
Developing activity-based control procedures: hot work, WAH, lifting, confined space, etc.
Integrating operational controls into PTW systems
Standardizing procedures across departments/sites
Why it matters:
This turns the management system into action at the ground level.
✅ 9. Emergency Preparedness & Response Planning
What you learn:
Emergency scenario identification and risk mapping
Drafting detailed emergency plans and response protocols
Conducting drills, evaluating outcomes, and revising plans
Linking to external agencies and first responders
Why it matters:
Systems must ensure life-saving readiness at all times.
✅ 10. Training, Awareness, and Competency
What you learn:
Developing a training matrix based on roles and hazards
Designing induction and refresher training content
Competency evaluations and records
HSE culture promotion through awareness sessions
Why it matters:
A system is only as strong as the people who implement it.
✅ 11. Monitoring, Measurement, and Performance Evaluation
What you learn:
Setting and tracking HSE KPIs
Safety performance dashboards and trend analysis
Incident, near-miss, and non-conformance tracking
Weekly/monthly HSE reporting formats
Why it matters:
You can’t improve what you don’t measure—monitoring fuels improvement.
✅ 12. Internal Audit Program & Management Review
What you learn:
Planning and executing internal HSEMS audits
Writing NCRs, observations, and corrective actions
Conducting management review meetings
Using audit outcomes to drive continual improvement
Why it matters:
Auditing is the backbone of ISO certification and system refinement.
✅ 13. Continual Improvement Planning
What you learn:
Creating a culture of safety innovation and learning
Integrating lessons learned into SOPs and training
CAPA implementation
Annual improvement planning cycles
Why it matters:
HSEMS is a living system—it must evolve with your risks and operations.
