In many industries, a proactive and preventative management system is essential. Such a system puts emphasis on risk control factors by identifying and assessing the likelihood of hazards in the workplace. Acquiring certification in OHSAS 18001 (changing to ISO 45001) standard addresses this need. Implementation of this standard enables the organisation to practice responsible risk control and continually improve safety and health performance to protect their work force and all those who could be affected by their operations.
Keyhole Solutions can help you work towards establishment, implementation and certification of your Occupational Safety and Health Management System.
The OHSAS 18001 (ISO 45001) specification is applicable to any organization that wishes to:
- Establish an OHSMS to eliminate or minimize risk to employees and other interested parties who may be exposed to activities with OH&S risks
- Assure compliance with its own OH&S policy
- Demonstrate such compliance to its stakeholders
- Implement, maintain, and continually improve an OHSMS
- Make a self-determination and declaration of compliance with this OHSAS specification
- Seek third-party independent certification of its OH&S management system
