Introduction A safety management plan concentrates on providing safety measures for a project or construction; the plan gives detailed and general information on matters of safety, the general hazards and how these hazards can be managed. Companies employ safety management plans with a goal of giving its workers a safe working environment. Duke Corporation is a multinational energy company engaging in the exploration, mining, production as well as the refining of oil and gas. Also, the corporation does manufacture chemicals, transport and market them for various uses in the industry. This paper will focus on the working as well as operational safety plans which Duke Corporation has put in place. To have an effective safety management plan, Duke Corporation focuses on its compliance with the legislation of OHS as the starting point. Unlike many organizations which develop safety management plans which are lengthy and only used when there is need, Duke Corporation has kept the plan very simple and even done reality test with its workforce. The corporation’s safety management plan includes some important components commencing with a Management Policy Statement a document usually approved by the top management of the company.

The report should establish the cause of the accident through questions like “what, who, when, where, and how” (Institute of Quarrying Australia, 2000). After establishing the cause, the plan requires that possible actions that can be taken to correct or prevent such an event from recurring be developed.

The report also contains details of the injured person, the kind of task they were carrying out, what actually happened, the causes of the accident, the corrective measures to be put in place, and the person to oversee their implantation.
