Hi

I would have emailed you direct but here is a list I was cutting and pasting for a later date breakdown and elimination.

I am sorry that it may be repeated in places, some may also sound stupid etc.

I had not returned to this subject for some time and therefore just hope you get some ideas from it like I did. This is one area that I feel we could all benefit by sharing some tools and templates for other to get ideas from.

Good luck

Jason

David,
have a look at Neil Budworth's paper, Indicators of Performance in Safety Management at this link, http://www.web-safety.com/Exchange/index.htm

Thanks for the responses - generally along the same lines as my thoughts but a couple of useful extras.
