Competence requirement for job position
Assign topic to the user
Answer:
The requirements for competency (appropriate level of education, experience, training) is usually not included in the procedure but other documents in such as job description. The standard requires the organization to ensure that any person(s) under its control performing tasks that can impact on OH&S is (are) competent on the basis of appropriate education, training or experience, but it doesn't require organization to document competency requirements for each job position.
In order to check whether the facility manager has appropriate level of competency, and again the standard only refers to the competence regarding occupational health and safety, you need to speak with the facility manager superior or HR department and see what are the re quirements and does this person meets these requirements.Also, if some operational controls are related to this job position and require training, you need to see if there is a record that demonstrates that this person had this training, and knows how to apply these particular operational controls.
