Exploring the benefits of OHSAS 18001
30th November 2012
The importance and relevance of hazard identification, risk assessment and risk control, legal and H&S development objectives within the operational workplace has never been more important. The health and safety risks that are associated with day-to-day operational responsibility are always at the fore-front when delivering a professional and sustainable on-site logistics service.
We are constantly striving for the highest levels of health and safety. To ensure these are achieved within Rudolph and Hellmann Automotive we are exploring the benefits of becoming an OHSAS 18001 certified company. 5 members of the Rudolph and Hellmann Automotive management team were enrolled to attend the OHSAS 18001 appreciation and interpretation course ran by LRQA (Lloyd’s Quality Register Assurance) in June 2012.
The course has given the Rudolph and Hellmann Automotive team an understanding of the key definitions and terminology within the OHSAS 18001 standard and the purpose and intent of its key requirements. The core content of the course focused on the importance and relevance of hazard identification, risk assessment and risk control, legal and H&S development objectives within the operational workplace.
Rudolph and Hellmann Automotives next goal will be to take the information from the course and integrate the broad framework into current management systems and processes, before it’s long term goal of gaining the certification.
