BACKGROUND

Inline with OSH MP15 aims:

Prevent the development of occupational diseases

Continue under OSH MP2020 – Strategy 4 re-engineering industrial hygiene

Low level of compliance with IH regulations especially among SME.

IH regulation were seen to be complicated and costly. * Two (2) years target for OH intervention program:

• High impact

• Simple

• Low cost

• Can be implemented in all types of industry depending on their resources

• High risk workplace

AIMS

OH Program should be :

•High impact

•Simple

•Low cost

•Marketable

•Well known

•Collaboration between Chemical Management, IH and OH

SoHELP METHODOLOGY

1 – Invitation letter is sent to selected workplaces.

2 – SHO will be trained by DOSH and agreement letter by the company to participate in SoHELP will be issued.

3 – SHO will brief Safety and Health Committee as well as workers about SoHELP.

4 – The company will conduct workplace inspection base on SoHELP checkpoints.

5 – The company will plan and implement all SoHELP relevant requirements.

6 – DOSH will visit and verify SoHELP level at participating workplaces. If necessary, coaching programme will be conducted (6 times in 14 months).

7 – At the end of each calendar cycle, SHO will be rewarded with CEP base on the level achieved. All participating companies will be given certificate of appreciation at the end of SoHELP (14 months).

TOTAL 15 24 30

•This CEP is given base on current level.

•SHO can apply for CEP once per calendar year.

•SoHELP Level must be higher than previous year. If the higher level cannot be achieved in the next year, CEP may be considered if PIC can provide proof of actions taken in order to improve workplace condition pertaining to SoHELP requirement.

•If the PICs are more than one (1), proof of participation must be provided by each and everyone of PIC.

•Verification of each level must be done by SoHELP Verifier.

OUTPUT of SoHELP

1. Reduction of health risk exposure in relation of ergonomics,

chemicals and noise for around 40,000 workers in the high

risk workplace.

220 X 180 per workplace

2. Total of 2200 members of Safety and Health Committee

(SHC) successfully trained to implement SHC functions

through SoHELP.

220 X 10 per workplace = 2200

3. Total of 220 SHO/employer successfully trained as SoHELP

Enabler (SOHELP-E).

4. Total of 88 DOSH officers successfully trained to be SoHELP

Verifier (SOHELP-V).

OUTCOME of Systematic Occupational Health Enhancement Level Programme (SoHELP)

Significant improvement in awareness and

implementation of SoHELP in high risk

workplaces.

■ Result for the first 6 months SoHELP implementation :

211/220 (96%) workplace participate in this programme

National GPS 2.4/5 achieved ( 2.3, 2.5,2.5)

214 SHO, 7 assessors and 39 involved

135,085 workers will be benefited in phase 1

Synergetic DOSH – Industry cooperation and Industry – Industry cooperation is crucial to enhance workplace occupational hygiene standard.
