Action plans
['Safety and Health Programs and Training']
- Create a plan of action after establishing goals and objectives.
After establishing goals and objectives, it is time to create a plan of action. The action plan should address:
- What activities will be undertaken;
- Who has responsibility;
- When the action realistically should be accomplished;
- What resources are needed, for example, people, time, dollars, equipment; and
- How the action will be tracked and evaluated.
The development of the action plan presents another opportunity for employee involvement. Managers and other employees can play an important role in mapping out the details they will be expected to accomplish.
