Uganda Occupational Safety and Health Act 2006 for CISOs

What does Uganda Occupational Safety and Health Act 2006 require of a CISO?

Uganda's principal workplace safety statute: employer duties to protect workers and the public, written safety policies, safety representatives, committees and union consultation, pollution monitoring, protective gear, health supervision and medical records, duties to non-employees and of controllers of premises, manufacturers and suppliers, worker duties and the right to leave imminent danger, registration and approval of workplaces, health and welfare facilities, general safety and fire requirements, machinery fencing, hoists, lifting equipment, boilers and receivers, hazardous materials, confined spaces, toxic substances and chemical safety data sheets and labelling, and the General Register. Under Uganda Occupational Safety and Health Act 2006, which defines 35 controls, a CISO's work is deciding which controls you own outright, which you share and which belong to another team, then holding the evidence for the first group.

Uganda Occupational Safety and Health Act 2006 defines 35 controls across 5 domains that directly affect the CISO role. Understanding which controls fall within your ownership, which are shared, and which are owned by other teams is the foundation of effective compliance management.
