SAFETY MANAGEMENT Qantas is required to implement and maintain a formal Safety Management System to meet national and international regulations. Qantas’ integrated management system standard, Qantas Management System (QMS), is a world leading approach that contributes to strong safety, health, security, risk and environment outcomes. This overarching approach enables the Group to meet its obligations across the business in a consistent way. Safety performance is monitored across all areas of Qantas. Information on potential safety and health hazards are provided by employee reports, automated monitoring systems and a continual examination of safety incidents and environmental conditions to target improvements. A set of OHS programs are in place that aim to provide a safe and injury-free workplace and underscore operational excellence. Brought together under the title be safe!, and within the overarching QMS, these programs are part of a goal of zero injuries and occurrences through effective safety systems, a healthy and safe work environment and a strong safety culture. be safe! is supported by senior and executive management and Board review of safety performance and resultant accountability, safety beliefs, cardinal rules, the eXcel employee recognition program and regular communications. Business areas have further tailored the OHS programs based on their risk profiles and operational needs. Integral to all business processes, the Group’s OHS programs deliver legislative compliance and behavioural and cultural change.
