4K.2 Guidance overview

4K.2 GUIDANCE

The following section provides a guide to assessing ASM impacts and risks to inform the development of an ASM management plan. As ASM is context specific, the approach needs to be calibrated appropriately to the operating and regulatory environment in which it is occurring. Specialist expertise should be sought to support sites in the identification of ASM related impacts and risks and in developing an approach to manage these risks and impacts, as appropriate. This guidance is not intended to be prescriptive but offers site teams options to consider in the management of ASM-related impacts and risks at their site. The approaches presented in this guidance are not mutually exclusive and may be combined and/or used progressively over the lifecycle of the asset. The Social Way follows the Plan Do Check Act (PDCA) management process and the guidance in this section is structured accordingly.
