2.4 Analyse the effects of non-compliance with health and safety legislation in the setting presented within
the case scenario.

CASE SCENARIO 3
“Health and safety differs from many areas measured by managers because success results in the absence of an
outcome (injuries or ill health) rather than a presence. But a low injury or ill-health rate, even over a period of
years, is no guarantee that risks are being controlled and will not lead to injuries or ill health in the future. This
is particularly true in organisations where there is a low probability of accidents but where major hazards are
present.
However, it seems a positive Safety culture can result in improved workplace health and safety (WHS) and
organisational performance. Safety culture is the attitude, beliefs, perceptions and values that employees share
in relation to safety in the workplace. It is a part of organizational culture, and has been described by the phrase
“the way we do things around here”.

Glossary
Analyse: Break an issue into its constituent parts. Look in depth at each part using supporting arguments and
evidence for and against as well as how these interrelate to one another.
Evaluate: Give your verdict as to what extent a statement or findings within a piece of research are true, or to
what extent you agree with them. Provide evidence taken from a wide range of sources which both agree
with and contradict an argument. Come to a final conclusion, basing your decision on what you judge to be the
most important factors and justify how you have made your choice.
Discuss: Essentially this is a written debate where you are using your skill at reasoning, backed up by carefully
selected evidence to make a case for and against an argument, or point out the advantages and disadvantages
of a given context. Remember to arrive at a conclusion.
