The Importance a Safety Management System has on Quality Control

Where industry expertise meets exceptional customer service

Managing workplace safety is an important goal that many companies have recognized as a logical and effective way to provide a better working environment for employees and to reduce corporate costs.

A key component in safety management is the system used to record, manage and analyse safety-related data. With an effective system, everyone can see exactly where accidents and unsafe situations are occurring and take proactive steps to eliminate them.

AS/NZS 4801 and OHSA ISO 18001 set out the requirements you’ll need to meet for an effective OH&S management system. Based on established Health & Safety standards, they are designed to work for organizations of all sizes and across all sectors.

What is the Safety standard?

AS/NZS 4801 is an international standard for the requirements of a safety management system, adopted jointly by Australia and New Zealand (AS/NZS). AS/NZS 4801 specifies the requirements for an organisation to systematically manage OH&S in the workplace.

What is a Safety Management System? (SMS)

As a manager, the thought of having systems in place to manage work health and safety, on top of all the other pressures of business, can be overwhelming. However, managing health and safety does not have to be difficult.

Our OH&S consultant will come to your workplace to conduct a review of your current procedures and help to identify any safety issues relevant to your business. Our OH&S consultant will then discuss possible solutions that could be effectively and efficiently implemented in your workplace. From these discussions, our consultant will develop all of the documentation, policies, procedures, forms, and other relevant materials to allow your organisation to have an operational organisational OH&S program which, when properly operated, will result in the successful certification of the system under AS/NZS 4801 safety standard.

Our consultants’ OH&S methodology will help you achieve quality assurance in safety

Our ISO consultants use a unique Business Diagnostic Questionnaire to effectively analyse and identify your business needs, then develop a customised AS/NZS 4801 compliant SMS.

This questionnaire is designed to reduce the time ISO Global consultants spend on site.  This significantly reduces the cost of the AS/NZS 4801 compliant SMS and allows you to focus on running your business

Our safety standards consulting will equip you with the necessary knowledge to succeed

Our ISO consultant will work closely with you through the entire safety standards consulting process to develop the most effective SMS for your business. We listen to your feedback, guide you through the successful introduction of the system in your business, and review the performance of your AS/NZS 4801 compliant SMS.
