WHS - Managing Risk

To manage risks associated with COVID 19 within clubs, Gymnastics NSW will work with clubs to adopt the NSW WHS Code of Practice. 

​

Under the Code employers have a primary duty of care to, as far as reasonably practical, eliminate risks to the health and safety of their workers (paid and unpaid), our members and visitors. 

​

Clubs will manage risk by: 

​

  1. thinking about what could go wrong, 
     

  2. determining what the consequence might be and
     

  3. deciding what is reasonably practical to minimise or eliminate the risk.


Prioritising Risk: 

​

Through consultation with workers each club will determine its priorities for managing risk.

 

These shall be: 

​

  1. Collectively Identified 
     

  2. Implemented by ALL
     

  3. Monitored and reviewed regularly by club management, WHS Representative/Committee
     

To implement these quality improvement measures with workers, Gymnastics NSW recommends that clubs should set a standing item on all meeting agendas for discussion and reporting.
