All you need to know about OHSAS 18001 Certification (Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems)
OHSAS 18001 is the British Standard for Occupational Health and Safety. It is internationally applied and recognised as a demonstrator of accurate occupational health and safety operations. Health & Safety Certification aligns adequately with the structure and requirements of the popular ISO 9001 and ISO 14001; this means that organisations who are already certified to the ISO 9001 and/or ISO 14001 standards can become Health & Safety Certified more simply.
Perhaps the most important and attractive feature of getting OHSAS 18001 Certification is the ability to advertise of a safe working environment. The reasons behind getting OHSAS 18001 range from remaining up-to-date with legislation and protecting your staff, but some of the many benefits are:
- Insurance premiums decrease
- Rates of accidents and incidents decrease
- Better ability to control occupational health and safety risks
- Become highly compliant with health and safety legislation
- Your reputation, with customers and stakeholders, will improve
