OHSAS 18001

Occupational Health and Safety

The Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series  (OHSAS) 18001 aims to provide companies with a tool to build an effective frame for Health and Safety Management.

Providing such a tool to identify and manage risks enables organizations to:

• encourage health and safety
• reduce accidents
• comply with legislation
• improve performance

Internationally recognized, the OHSAS 18001 approach was developed from existing standards such as BS 8800, A 81900 and other local references. The OHSAS 18001 standard is fully consistent with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 and has compatible audit processes, such as interviews, document review and inspection.
