Answer:

I assume by SMS you meant Safety Management System. Implementing SMS can be done in numerous ways but for this answer I will explain how to do it with OHSAS 18001.

The first step is to conduct the GAP analysis to determine to what level your company is already compliant with OHSAS 18001 and what needs to be done to achieve full compliance and establish effective SMS. Here you can find free OHSAS 18001 Gap Analysis Tool https://advisera.com/18001academy/ohsas-18001-gap-analysis-tool/

Once you determine what needs to be done you should develop project plan for the implementation with defined activities, resources responsibilities and deadlines. In this way you will distribute the burden of the implementation to several people and this can make your implementation faster and more effective. Here you can download our free Project Plan for OHSAS 18001 implementation https://info.advisera.com/18001academy/free-download/project-plan-for-ohsas-18001-implementation

After you impl ement all activities and develop all necessary documents, you need to conduct internal audit and management review to ensure that the system is in place and compliant with OHSAS 18001. For more details on implementation, see: 12 Steps for implementation and certification against OHSAS 18001 https://advisera.com/18001academy/blog/2015/11/04/12-steps-for-implementation-and-certification-against-ohsas-18001/
