I am trying to encourage my boss to consider implementing the OHSAS 18001 scheme for our sites.

He has asked me to give a presentation on the scheme, what it entails and so on.

I have a copy of the standard. However, I was wondering if anyone has already put a presentation together and would be willing to let me have a copy of it to save me re-inventing the wheel.

Thanks in advance,


Kev

Kevin,

I have also e-mailed you directly with a FAQ document on this subject that we keep on file. It notes the expected benefits that implementing OHSAS 18001 should entail and the international recognition that a certified system enjoys.

If anyone else wants a copy please just ask, by clicking on my name above and emailing direct.

I just had a shufti through my web Favourites and found this URL - it should be helpful as well.

I have just been browsing through a book that I think might be of value to you if it is the 18001 route you are interested in. It is called;

"Managing Safety the Systems Way BS8800 to )OHSAS18001 - Implementing a cost-effective management system for OHS"

It is a BSI publication.

It appears to be very well laid out and geared towards the SME and the larger organisation.

Good luck

Ciaran

Look at an earlier thread I started on OHSAS 18001 last year. There were some vary useful replies - I convinced our board of directors.

The assessor is doing his first visit to us on Monday next week!!
