Course Overview

To begin, what are OHS management systems? OHS refers to occupational health and safety management systems, specifically OHSAS 18001. OHSAS 18001 is an international standard providing a framework to identify, control and reduce health- and safety-associated risks of employees.

It aims at protecting employees from risks of occupational hazards and reducing the chances of accidents at the workplace. Getting certified under OHSAS 18001:2007 offers an organisation an enhanced corporate image and credibility.

Further, considering that it is an international standard, the organisation gains employees’ trust with regard to the organisation’s intentions to safeguard their health and safety through the establishment of OHS management systems.

OHS management systems are implemented by various organisations and help limit legal risks as well as regulatory and compliance-related issues regarding employee health and safety.

This Zoe training course will empower you with complete understanding and knowledge of OHS management systems and their benefits to organisations.
