We’ve all heard the saying safety first. So, when you’re responsible for the Health & Safety of employees and customers, it’s important your standards are up to scratch. It’s your job to boost Health & Safety performance and protect workers and your organisation from the risks of accidents and ill health. So how can make sure you’re getting it right?
Health & Safety management
ISO 45001 is a global Standard that provides a solution to better manage physical Health & Safety risks, through an occupational Health & Safety management system. This can help you manage your responsibilities by following best practices and creating a culture of safety.
ISO 45001 is designed to help businesses of all sizes and in all sectors identify and reduce risks to improve employee safety. And because it looks at opportunities as well as risks, it helps promote wellbeing, productivity and positivity in the workplace.
Prevention pays
Poor Health & Safety management has serious costs. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) reported 142 workers were killed at work in 2020/21. 1.7 million workers suffered from work-related ill health and 0.4 million suffered an injury.
The financial cost and long-term reputational damage of even a minor work-related accident can be damaging for a business. The average HSE enforcement fine last year was £145,000. A cost you can do without. Taking action to keep employees safe is not only a legal requirement, it’s smart business.
Take the lead in workplace safety
An occupational Health & Safety management system can help you safeguard your people and manage your responsibilities. Gaining ISO 45001 certification shows you follow Health & Safety best practices and reduces the likelihood of accidents and breaches of legislation, as well as improving your overall performance. It can even help you win more business – you’ll stand out as an industry leader with a Standard that’s recognised worldwide!
