Health & Safety OHSAS 18001

What is an Occupational Health and Safety Management System?

An Occupational Health and Safety Management System provides a framework for managing OHS responsibilities so they become more efficient and more integrated into overall business operations.

OHS Management systems are based on standards, which specify a process of achieving continuously improved OHS performance and complying with legislation. BSI Management Systems offers registration to the internationally recognized assessment specification OHSAS 18001 (which was based on the original British Standard BS 8800).

Registration can:

• Reduce risk
• Give competitive advantages
• Help companies stay in compliance with legal requirements
• Improve overall performance
