Companies are coming under increasing commercial, regulatory and ethical pressures to ensure that they control risks within their operations. With the need for organisations to ensure they comply with the appropriate legislation, many are now realising the benefits a formalised approach to health and safety management can bring.

Added to this, a growing number of organisations have a contractual requirement to prove that they control health and safety. One way to achieve this control is to implement a management system meeting the requirements of OHSAS 18001. This enables the organisation to reduce the overall risks to the organisation and demonstrate good governance. There are a number of key benefits associated with implementing a certified OHS management system. These include:

  • A structured approach to hazard identification and risk management which can contribute to the provision of a healthier and safer working environment.
  • The avoidance of a high proportion of accidents and occupational health problems – leading to reduced lost time through employee illness and injury.
  • The management of health and safety becoming more transparent and effective by translating the outputs of risk assessments, 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.

    • Let CPA help you to develop a system which satisfies your requirements and enables your business to achieve the above benefits.
