OHSAS 18001Woodhams is proud to announce their accreditation of the OHSAS 18001 Occupational Health and Safety Standard.

OHSAS 18001 is a tried and tested approach to demonstrate a commitment to caring for your people. It helps reduce the risk of accidents, claims and costs which we are dedicated to achieving. Our workforce’s safety and well-being, both on and off-site, is of paramount importance and the 18001 standard demonstrates this.

Woodhams also holds the ISO 9001 quality management standard and made the transition to the latest version – ISO 9001:2015 during the 18001 assessment. Having adhered to the requirements of the standard for some time, we understand the many benefits that come with certification and how it operates to instil confidence in our clients that our processes and quality management are of the highest standard.

The OHSAS 18001 Process

Stage 1

The first stage required Woodhams to study the OHSAS 18001 standard in detail. This meant paying particular attention to all the requirements that must be adhered to in order to achieve the standard. Once content with the requirements, the Assessor had an initial meeting to formulate how best to get the Woodhams workforce involved to achieve the standard in an efficient and collaborative manner.

Stage 2

Then came the First Assessment. The Assessor identified the requirements already satisfied, and where improvements need to be made to meet the standard. This is the first compulsory assessment required to achieve the standard. Once feedback from the Assessor was received, Woodhams implemented any identified areas of improvement and consolidated areas in which it was already satisfying the 18001 standard.

Stage 3

The Assessor then came back for a final assessment. Woodhams underwent a day-long assessment of its Occupational Health & Safety and, at the end of this, was told they had successfully met the required OHSAS 18001 Health & Safety Standard.

Stage 4

OHSAS 18001 is so revered because of its requirement for continuous improvement, which involves a commitment to being assessed every 12 months. Woodhams will therefore undergo an annual assessment on the anniversary of our accreditation each year to demonstrate our ability to maintain the rigorous requirements.

What’s Next?

Woodhams is committed to continued self-evaluation and strives for excellence. That is why Woodhams is now working towards achieving the ISO 14001 standard to demonstrate our commitment to reducing our environmental impact, reduce waste and lower costs.
