Which of the following is NOT a key part of a safety and health management system?

Plan
Do
Check
Negotiate

The correct answer is: Negotiate

In a safety and health management system, the key components typically follow the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle. This framework is designed to provide a structured approach to managing safety and health within an organization. The 'Plan' phase involves identifying hazards, assessing risks, and determining how these risks will be managed. The 'Do' phase is where the plans are implemented, including training and communicating safety policies to staff. The 'Check' phase entails monitoring and measuring the effectiveness of the safety measures and practices in place. Finally, the 'Act' phase involves taking actions to continually improve upon the processes based on the results from the previous phases. The option that indicates negotiation does not align with this structured approach. While negotiation may play a role in discussions surrounding safety protocols or employee welfare, it is not a stand-alone component of safety and health management systems. Instead, the focus is on systematic planning, execution, monitoring, and improvement to ensure workplace safety effectively. Thus, 'negotiation' is correctly identified as not being a key part of the safety and health management system.
