Appropriate and effective supervision at any level of an organisation is critical in ensuring that risk to workers is at an acceptable level. The supervisor is the immediate interface between management and the workforce, and has the responsibility of interpreting senior management directions and the safety culture encompassed in the safety and heath management system, and then interpreting and implementing the policies and procedures. This cannot be done effectively without significant organisational support, including resources.

s23. Meaning of supervisor A supervisor at a mine is a worker who is authorised by the site senior executive to give directions to other workers.

• Supervision is a critical management function that must be reflected in an organisation’s safety and health management system and organisational structure.
• Supervisors must have a clear and realistic role and position description that reflects their accountabilities and responsibilities.
• Supervisors must have the time and resources to effectively supervise all of their workers and the tasks they undertake.
• Supervision has a key influence on the way teams perform. Therefore, the way supervision is delivered must be appropriate for the way the team functions.
• Individuals with any form of supervisory role must have the necessary competence and opportunity (including time to carry out supervisory roles, interaction with the people they are supervising and respect from those people) to fulfil their responsibilities.
• Supervisors must have adequate content knowledge to ensure they are able to identify hazards, assess risks and establish effective controls.
• The closeness of direct supervision must reflect the level of risk workers are exposed to and their skill level and experience. This is critically important where administrative controls such as procedures are the primary risk reduction method, i.e., a failure to follow a procedure results in exposure to an uncontrolled hazard.
• Contractors can have a significant impact on health and safety performance (positive or negative). Hence, supervision of contractors must be effectively managed.
• Organisational arrangements must ensure effective leadership in emergency situations.
