You have just been appointed the special SHE advisor to the company Vice~ President of Risk Management. In your new position, you have been asked to prepare a brief overview of the corporation’s long-range management systems regarding safety, health and the environment. You begin your research and discover many elements, processes, and systems available today. You develop your briefing for the top management team, make your presentation, and in your conclusion you make the following statement: 2) Quality and environmental systems are frequently 1n conformance with international voluntary consensus standards, or they share many basic concepts and principles with them.... The company should begin implementation ofthe best available option to achieve company goals. 2. Organizational and management systems ate so varied and sometimes exotic, there is no consistency in their design. The best solution for the corperation is to select one system and implement ‘his without regard to costs, components, or long-range plans. 3. There are several systems available for adoption, and the corporation © should form a study committee to analyze the options. After a thorough analysis, the committee should recommend a course of action to ‘implement independent of any other management systems in place. 4. The reliability of current systems is sufficient under current requirements, ‘The corporation should not take any actions not mandated by regulations, codes, laws, or international suggestions.

It comprises two parts, 18001 and 18002 and embraces 'BS8800 and a number of other publications. OHSAS 18001 was created via a concerted effort from a number of the worlds’ leading national standards bodies, cerification bodies, and specialist consultancies. A main driver for this was to try to remove confusion in the workplace from the proliferation of certifiable OH&S specifications. The participants were as follows: * National Standards Authority of Ireland * Standards Australia * South African Bureau of Standards * British Standards Institution * Bureau Veritas Quality International * Det Norske Veritas * Lloyds Register Quality Assurance * National Quality Assurance * SES Certification * SGS Yarsley International Certification Services * Asociacion de Normalizacion y Certificacion * International Safety Management Organisation Ltd * Standards and Industry Research Institute of Malaysia * International Certification Services Benefits - How Can OHSAS Help? ‘The OHSAS specification is applicable to any organization that wishes to: + Establish an OH&S management system to eliminate or minimize risk to employees and other interested parties who may be exposed to OHS risks, associated with its activities + Assure itself of its conformance with its stated OH&S policy ‘+ Demonstrate such conformance to others + Implement, maintain and continually improve an OH&S management system ‘+ Make a self-determination and declaration of conformance with this OHSAS specification. «+ Seek certification/registration ofits OH&S management system by an ‘extemal organization Essentially, OHSAS helps in a variety of respects. it helps: minimize risk to cemployeesiete; improve an existing OH&S management system; demonstrate diligence; gain assurance; etc. The benefits can be substantial, Cope Langlo, Weigand & Asocates Ie, Page 7239.
