OHSAS 18001: 2007 Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems

As the term "Occupational Health and Safety” implies, there are two aspects to this field. One is the area of safety, which seeks to make workplaces safe for workers so that they do not suffer injuries. Poorly designed /maintained workplaces or equipment may pose serious hazards to workers and more than 400,000 injuries occur at work each year. Separate from the concept of safety is that of occupational health, where the goal is to prevent the occurrence of illnesses among workers due to exposure at their place of work. The importance of “Health” in the workplace has now been given greater emphasis under these requirements, so do many other aspects that you may not be aware of. We will bring you up to speed with the NEW requirements, and go beyond that, by implementing this within your company.

ISO 14001: 2004 Environmental Management Systems

It’s been said that internationally, the ISO 14001 standard has already generated interest that far surpasses that of any previous ISO standards, including ISO 9001:2008. Due to the recent introduction of ISO 14001, the implication of this standard on industry, particularly in South Africa, is massive. We will explore the potential benefits and costs (both monetary and environmental) of your Company’s’ involvement in the implementation of ISO 14001. We will be in a position to assist industry and those involved in environmental and trade issues to decide to take ISO 14001 as a credible and useful standard for effective environmental management in South Africa. ISO 14001: 2004 international Standard is generic and flexible enough to apply to any organization. We will apply all the requirements as per Standard, from Scope to Management Review. For your benefit, we will introduce/initiate Audits into your Organisation.

ISO 9001:2008 - Quality

This is a broad and generic system which could be used by any type of Company. ISO 9001:2008 is designed as a tool for businesses to become more efficient, improve their processes and ultimately their quality. We will simplify the processes, and help you to never lose sight of this basic goal. The ISO 9001:2008 standard is intended for use in any organization which designs, develops, manufactures, installs and/or services any product or provides any form of service. ISO 9001:2008 provides a number of requirements which an organization needs to fulfil if it is to achieve customer satisfaction through consistent products and services which meet customer expectations. ISO 9001:2008 is the only standard for which third-party auditors may grant certifications. We will get you there.
