Hi Forum, I am working for a new start business , based in the UK , our plan is to develop an OHSAS compliant HSMS and whilst familiar with the requirements of OHSAS 18001/2 to define and specify the framework required , for a Health and Safety Management System (HSMS) . Unfortunately, what I do not have to assist the development of our HSMS , is a copy of an exisiting HSMS which has been developed to meet OHSAS requirements as a reference , I was wondering if any of the IOSH members have a version that they would be willing to share ? Thanks in advance David

Bob Understand your position , just looking for reference /support on the interpretation and level of detail required WDG

Bob Youel Thanks for your advice , I may proceed down the path you suggest, although the ultimate business goal is to achieve 18001 certification , hence my original plan to start with this framework. The business is Engineering : Design and Installation.

I think you're 'barking up the wrong tree' so to speak, you need to start with a scope, there are so many elements of OHSAS18001, I would start with HSG65 compliant HSMS to begin with and several years down the line consider attaining accreditation to 18001.
