FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Many organisations are implementing an occupational health and safety management system (OHSMS) as part of their risk management strategy to address changing legislation and to protect their
workforce. An OHSMS promotes a safe and healthy working environment by providing a framework that allows an organisation to consistently identify and control its health and safety risks and improve
overall performance. BS OHSAS 18001 is the nationally accepted standard that sets out how to go about putting in place an effective OHSMS.
The BSI certification mark can be used on your stationery, literature
and vehicles when you have successfully achieved certification.
