How to Apply

All Green Cross Group members are eligible to apply for the Partnership Scheme. Interested member organizations are required to go through a screening process under which they have to submit the background information of the corporation, details of the current OSH performance, and the proposal outlining the safety improvement plans. The section on current OSH performance should include information on the accident statistics in recent years, the major causes of accidents, the OSH issues requiring improvement, and the existing safety management system.

The proposed improvement plan should clearly state the resources committed by the corporation including management involvement, manpower, financial commitment, deliverables and timetable set for the project, etc. Commitment from the management and the employees are essential for the continual improvement.

Experience Sharing for Continual Improvement

Member organizations being identified as our strategic partner in the Partnership Scheme are required to share their experiences with the Green Cross Group net work and the industry through seminars, publications, or other sharing events organised by the Council. The lessons learned from improvement plans would benefit the entire business community and lead the industry towards continual improvement in safety performance.
