On 22 August 2023, the Commission recommended that Wallace Investments Limited prioritise a review of their safety management system to ensure that:
• the responsibility for safety of each stevedoring role is clearly defined, unambiguous, and understood by all personnel
• procedures for work activity adequately cover scenarios with increased risk
• all risks are identified, and administrative risk controls are only used when more effective risk controls are not reasonably practicable
• adherence to administrative risk controls is effectively managed.
• supervisory oversight is effective and not compromised by competing operational demands
• safety-assurance mechanisms are in place to reliably evaluate the effectiveness of and adherence to risk-control strategies.
