OHSAS 18001

An effective and robust Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Management System can help you turn uncontrolled hazards into controlled risks and therefore safeguard the wellbeing of both your people and your business.

There are different reasons why your business may need to gain certification, it may be that the new contract you have just won states you must have it or your one of many company’s looking to reduce the overall risks to the organisation and demonstrate good governance.

Below are a few key benefits with implementing a certified OHS management system;

• A structured approach to hazard identification and risk management which can contribute to the provision of a healthier and safer working environment and the avoidance of a high proportion of accidents and occupational health problems – this should help reduce lost time through employee illness and injury

• The management of health and safety becoming more transparent and effective by translating the outputs of risk assessment, audits, inspections, legal reviews and incident investigations into action plans to minimise the risk of accidents

• improved staff morale, potential reductions in liability claims and lower insurance premiums

• increased credibility from having an OHS management system independently assessed
