Macro "Safety" (Part 1)

a headache day for me today... economy recession affected all the industries including the company that I'm working right now (well, electronic industries.... ). Management's decision, freeze new hire... wowww, nothing new then.... a common decision to cut the cost... including my Safety Department... previously, we have 7 manpowers & now left 4... 2 managers & 2 engineers (one of the engineer is me!!)

One of the engineer (initially we have 3, but 1 of them will leaving tomorrow)... so, as usual & also to ensure the continuity of Safety Management in the company, he passed down all his tasks (most of his tasks, of course...) to me... can start to feel the additional responsibilities & workloads on my shoulder... wahhhhh, cool :)). Well, just to please myself, I take it as another challenges that I need to face & it's a good exposure for me to learn more...

So, I'm trying to think how I can manage all the workloads... I handle ISO14001, OHSAS18001, Radiation Protection Program, Construction Project, Safety & Health Promotion, Training, Risk Management for right now (I think that's all for right now....)... furthermore, I'm supporting my another colleague managing ERP.... so, I sit down & observe all the workloads on my table... sketched some strategies on a paper (... I called it a strategy, hehehehe) on how to manage the workload... somehow, at the end of today, I can see the overall view & cleared picture on how to manage the workloads... I called it Macro "Safety"... same methodology as Macro Economy...

I will continue the writing later... need to write down my Macro "Safety" Strategies first :)
