Implications A SMS is intended to act as a business administration structure for an organisation to effectively meet its legal obligations under applicable occupational safety and health laws. The scope of the organisation 's operations and therefore its risk profile will determine how the SMS is structured and what resources are required to manage occupational health and safety risk effectively. Some organisations may also have to dovetail other management system functions, such as process safety, environmental resource management or quality management together with safety management to meet both regulatory requirements, industry sector requirements and an organisations own internal and discretionary standard requirements. Safety management should be considered as a part of the overall business management system of an organisation and not an add-on to it. Increasingly, management standards across a range of business functions such as environment, quality and safety are now being designed so that these traditionally disparate elements can be integrated and managed within a single business management system and not as separate and stand-alone functions.
