Our consulting approach combines systematic hazard identification, risk assessment, and control implementation with regulatory compliance support tailored to each jurisdiction’s occupational safety, environmental protection, and major hazard control requirements.
HSE Regulations and Compliance Requirements in Malaysia
Effective HSE management in Malaysia requires comprehensive understanding of interconnected regulations governing workplace safety, environmental protection, and major hazard control. Our HSE consultants bring deep expertise in navigating these regulatory requirements while implementing practical solutions that enhance operational performance.
1
Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) 1994
Malaysia’s primary workplace safety legislation establishes comprehensive employer duties to ensure safe working environments. OSHA 1994 mandates systematic risk assessments, documented Safety and Health Policies, and Safety and Health Committees for prescribed organizations. The Department of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH) enforces this Act alongside subsidiary regulations including CIMAH Regulations 1996, USECHH Regulations 2000, and Safety and Health Committee Regulations 1996.
2
Factories and Machinery Act (FMA) 1967
Machinery safety and pressure equipment integrity across Malaysian industrial premises are regulated under FMA 1967. The legislation mandates registration, periodic inspection, and certification of pressure vessels, steam boilers, air receivers, cranes, hoists, and lifts by competent persons. These technical standards complement OSHA 1994’s broader workplace safety provisions.
3
CIMAH Regulations 1996 (DOSH)
Industrial facilities storing or handling hazardous chemicals above specified threshold quantities must register with DOSH as Major Hazard Installations (MHI). CIMAH compliance requires comprehensive Safety Reports, Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA), Safety Management Systems, and On-Site Emergency Plans to prevent catastrophic incidents. Chemical plants, petroleum refineries, petrochemical complexes, and LPG installations throughout Malaysia fall under these regulations.
4
Environmental Quality Act (EQA) 1974
Malaysia’s foundational environmental protection legislation regulates air emissions, effluent discharges, scheduled waste management, and pollution control. The Department of Environment (DOE) administers EQA 1974, requiring Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) approval for prescribed activities and development projects. Penalties for non-compliance include fines, prosecution, and operational suspension.
