<H2>OHSAS 18001 helps your organization systematically minimize the risk of accidents and work-related illnesses.</H2>
<br><P>Keeping your employees safe on the job is critical. One of the most efficient methods for planning and managing your safety program is an Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS). </P>
<br><P>The internationally-recognized OHSMS standard, OHSAS 18001:2007, works with your organization's existing management system to introduce a systematic approach to occupational health and safety, assessing workplace hazards and implementing preventative measures as part of day-to-day operations. Certification to OHSAS 18001 can help your organization more easily demonstrate compliance with both current and future occupational health and safety laws. </P>
