3 days 

1. Comply with Malaysian Occupational Safety and Health Law

Section 29A of the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 (Act 514) requires applicable employers to appoint an Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Coordinator if they employ five (5) or more employees and are not required to appoint a Safety and Health Officer (SHO).

This course prepares appointed employees to fulfil that role effectively.

2. Meet DOSH’s Prescribed Qualification Requirement

DOSH requires an appointed OSH Coordinator to successfully complete the prescribed course conducted by a DOSH-registered training provider.

Completing this training demonstrates that the appointed coordinator has received the knowledge and competency expected by DOSH for carrying out OSH coordination duties.

3. Reduce the Risk of Legal Non-Compliance

Failure to comply with occupational safety and health legislation may expose employers to:

• Regulatory investigations

• Enforcement action by DOSH

• Financial penalties

• Business disruption

• Reputational damage

• Increased liability following workplace accidents

Having a trained OSH Coordinator helps organisations establish proper safety management systems and demonstrate due diligence.

4. Support Employer’s Legal Duties

Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994, employers have legal responsibilities to provide, so far as is practicable:

• A safe workplace

• Safe systems of work

• Safe plant and machinery

• Safe handling, storage and transport of substances

• Adequate information, instruction, training and supervision

A competent OSH Coordinator assists employers in coordinating these workplace safety and health activities.

5. Strengthen Workplace Compliance and Documentation

The course equips participants to support employers in:

• Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and Risk Control (HIRARC)

• Workplace inspections

• Incident reporting

• Safety committee activities

• Emergency preparedness

• Workplace safety documentation

• Continuous safety improvement

These activities contribute to better compliance with Malaysian occupational safety and health requirements.

6. Improve Accident Prevention and Risk Management

Beyond legal compliance, organisations benefit from:

• Reduced workplace accidents

• Lower occupational disease risks

• Improved employee awareness

• Better safety culture

• Increased operational efficiency

• Reduced business interruption

7. Prepare for DOSH Inspections

A trained OSH Coordinator helps organisations prepare for workplace inspections by ensuring:

• Safety procedures are implemented

• Risk assessments are maintained

• Required records are available

• Workplace hazards are identified and controlled

• Corrective actions are monitored

This supports ongoing compliance with occupational safety and health obligations.
