Seminar on new Global Standard for Health and Safety
There have been significant changes in the certification landscape to meet current market best practice. The recent release of the draft OH&S Management Systems (ISO 45001) in 2016 and the new revision of ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 feature various amendments from previous versions.
Bureau Veritas and myosh have teamed up to provide a free information seminar in Sydney on 1 March. The seminar is designed to help businesses and management make sense of the new ISO standards as well as show the attendees how the use of technology can help streamline some of the more time-consuming aspects of staying compliant.
What is ISO 45001?
ISO is the product of collaboration between more than 70 countries and is designed to work for any size business.
The framework identifies and controls health and safety risks, reduces potential accidents, aids legislative compliance and improves overall performance. The standard also demonstrates how to develop and implement a policy with the right objectives for organisations of all types and sizes.
Increasingly, companies now want detailed information about their suppliers’ occupational health and safety practices to protect their brands.
The standards described in the draft are not new or even tough to implement. It provides a systematic approach that ensures all aspects are considered when directing operations in the workplace.
