OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH & SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Help protect workers from harm's way

In many industries, a proactive and preventative management system is essential. Such a system puts emphasis on risk control factors by identifying and assessing the likelihood of hazards in the workplace. The OHSAS 18001 Certification Scheme is an Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) standard that addresses this need. It’s based on the BSOHSAS 18001:2007 standard that enables organisations to practice responsible risk control and continually improve safety and health performance to protect their workforce.

Whatever the location, whatever the culture, you can rely on Alpha Business Management Co Ltd (ABM) Consultancy to help you protect your people.
