MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
Health & Safety Management Systems
Many organisations are implementing an Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS) as part of their risk management strategy to address changing legislation and protect their workforce. An OHSMS promotes a safe and healthy working environment by providing a framework that allows your organization to consistently identify and control its health and safety risks, reduce the potential for accidents, aid legislative compliance and improve overall performance.
OHSAS 18001 is the internationally recognised assessment specification for occupational health and safety management systems. Certifying your OHSAS management system enables your organisation to prove that it conforms to the specification and provides the following benefits:
- Potential reduction in the number of accidents;
- Potential reduction in downtime and associated costs;
- Demonstration of legal and regulatory compliance;
- Demonstration to stakeholders of your commitment to Health and Safety;
- Demonstration of an innovative and forward thinking approach;
- Increased access to new customers and business partners;
- Better management of Health and Safety risks (present and future), and
- Potential reduced public liability insurance costs.
