Being accredited to a standard, either international, a professional body or an organisation, can provide significant benefit to your business. It will help demonstrate that your business is proactive, has good management systems in place to manage health, safety and environmental matters, and in addition, will help to enhance your business profile and commercial opportunities. SCM can assist you with these processes.
ISO 45001:
A key benefit of the new standard is that it includes Annex SL which means it follows a high-level structure (HLS) which aligns your OH&S management system with other ISO management systems your organization has in place. This could help streamline processes and deliver efficiencies saving time and money.
This new standard can also help deliver the following benefits:
- Increase organisational resilience through proactive risk prevention, innovation and continual improvement
- Strengthening of legal and regulatory compliance whilst reducing business losses
- Demonstrates brand responsibility by committing to safe, healthy and sustainable workplace
- One global occupational health and safety system for all businesses, of all sizes
