Safety Manual

First, you do ask us politely so my harsh comments may come as a surprise. Second, we've had too many clearly unqualified people posting dangerous questions here as "guests" here lately. If you wish to be treated with better respect, at least sign in with a handle so that we will know when you are replying to us.

Now, explain to me why any of us should help you to do your job when you apparently won't even use a search engine? I would much rather have you fail so miserably to make a safety manual that nobody will use it than to have you misunderstand my ideas and cause somebody to die. Safety should not be handled by unqualified people. If you return with specific safety related questions that exist in another document that don't make sense to you, many people here including myself will gladly translate. But to ask us to just hand over the proprietary material of another organization's safety manual in a public forum without even taking a fictitious handle takes balls.

Regulations / Standards

The Country where you are located will have an important aspect of what your scope and content must be.

The scope and kinds of work that your affected employees perform will also be foundational to your work. The Steps that I would follow is 1) list of Employee positions; 2) List of Tasks performed by each employee; 3) Job hazard analysis for each task performed by each employee; 4) development of Employee safety analysis including hazard recognition, applicable Personal protective equipment required, means of controlling hazards identified by engineering controls, guards, interlocks, lockout tagout, or other means; 5) After that work has been completed, and discussed with employees / employee management engineering joint committee, bench mark to other organizations with similar systems to see what may have been omitted.

Usually a trade association can help you contact other companies for the purpose of benchmarking.

Look at your governments labor and safety website to look at applicable regs.

If you are in the US, once you register, you can send me an private message by clicking my "name? and I can suggest a couple of consultants.
