Systems

Standards articulate requirements that are mandatory across the organisation.  They provide information about the acceptable level of practice required to meet its policies and other obligations.  Standards apply across the organisation and are non-negotiable.

Business Processes, including Procedures and Guidelines, are developed and ‘owned’ by specific Business functions (e.g. finance, IT, HR, Ops) within the organisation. There are 2 types of business processes:

• Sample ​Common business processes that articulate the performance requirements associated with activities common across the organisation (such as training and development, health and safety, waste management, environmental protection).
• Business Area-specific processes that articulate the performance requirements associated with activities specific to that business unit (such as Mining Operations, Processing Technical Services).
