Required knowledge

The information your provide to your employees can be classified into:

1. Required knowledge: information that people should know in order to be working at all.
   
2. Instructions and guidelines: information that people need to be able to access.

The required knowledge for all employees typically includes:

• code of conduct
• safety policy
• emergency response

Some compliance requirements stipulate a level of ‘employee awareness’ that should be included with the required knowledge for employees in particular roles.
