If you need to update your chapter (with changes major or minor), you need to go through the Requirements Management process.
The Requirements Management process is summarized below:
- Notify the EHS Requirements Manager of your intention to make changes to your chapter.
- The EHS Requirements Manager will send you links to:
- A Google doc draft of your chapter for you to mark up
- A Google doc Significance Rating/Implementation form. This form gives information on the extent and impact of your changes. (The EHS Requirements Manager will walk you through the form, if necessary, based on the extent of your update.)
- Mark up your chapter with your desired changes and fill out the Significance Rating form. Let the EHS Requirements Manager know when you’re finished.
- Based on the extent of the changes to your chapter – especially if your update includes any change in policy – you may be asked to present a summary of policy changes to the Safety Advisory Committee (SAC) and the Division Safety Coordinators (DSCs).
- Let the EHS Requirements Manager know when chapter updates are finalized.
- Upon publication, inform stakeholders of the chapter changes as per your communication plan (outlined in the Implementation Plan form).
