More and more organizations are concerned about demonstrating their commitment to occupational health and safety. Although crucial for employees, this also covers customers and other stakeholders. In addition, stricter legislation demands that organizations show a clear, pro-active commitment towards the health and safety of their employees.
On February 17th, 2009 TODO AB were awarded the ISO Certificate for OHSAS 18001.
OHSAS 18001 is a specification for Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Management Systems, jointly developed by a number of international third party certification bodies, national standards bodies, and other interested parties. It enables organizations to manage operational risks and improve performance. It also provides guidance on how to manage health and safety aspects of business activities more effectively, while taking into careful consideration accident prevention, risk reduction and the well-being of employees.
What are the benefits of OHSAS 18001?....
OHSAS 18001 certification can positively improve the efficiency of internal operations and consequently reduce accidents, danger and downtime. Employee safety and the quality of the working environment are actively improved because objectives and responsibilities are made clearer and all employees are prepared to effectively deal with any future hazards. OHSAS 18001 also ensures compliance with current legal requirements.
Achieving OHSAS 18001 certification demonstrates TODO’s high level of occupational health and safety and proves the reliability of their internal operations to meet customer requirements, as well as overall performance.
