EHS Management Systems Implementation

The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) has issued an Occupational Safety and Health Management System (OSHMS) standard, ANSI Z10. This standard is significant and will be a defining aspect of sustaining high level OHS performance. Organizations that implement ANSI Z10 can ensure long-term sustainability.

The ISO 14001 standard is built on the concept that better environmental performance can be achieved when environmental issues are clearly identified and managed. ISO 14001 certification is increasingly a condition of doing business internationally and promoting a positive environmental image.

OHSAS 18001 is an Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series (OHSAS) for an occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system created to enable organizations to control occupational health and safety risks and to improve performance. OHSAS 18001 is designed to place a proactive and preventative emphasis on risk control factors by identifying and assessing the likelihood of hazards in the workplace. OHSAS 18001 can be implemented by organizations of all sizes and in any industry.
