need/situationer of the company
• OSH program must be written, approved, signed
by employers, information is disseminated to all
members of the agency
• Periodically evaluated, copy of updated OSH
program submitted to DOLE.
• Resources should be allotted for the
implementation of the agency’s OSH program.
• OSH program is a product of teamwork.
