Assessment	Conduct a walk-through assessment to identify significant risks in the workplace. Identify gaps in WSH management through a WSH questionnaire (PDF). Profile the health status of employees based on a basic health survey (PDF), completed by a representative number of employees.
Intervention	Recommend improvements to WSH management. Identify health issues that impact health and safety. Design and introduce broad-based or customised intervention programmes (e.g. work redesign or ergonomics).
Monitoring and Evaluation	Monitor the progress of intervention programmes. Evaluate their outcomes and effectiveness.
