Occupational Safety & Health Management System

 

OHSAS 18001
Occupational Health & Safety Assessment Series

Brookhaven National Laboratory is dedicated to providing a healthy and safe work environment for employees, contractors and visitors. To help achieve this goal, theOHSAS 18001 (Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series) specifications have been used to develop a comprehensive Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) management system, a vital part of the BNL Integrated Safety Management (ISM) program.

BNL commitments to implement, maintain and continually improve an OSH management system that: clearly states occupational health and safety policies, programs and objectives appropriate for BNL operations; identifies occupational health and safety risks and legal requirements; takes a proactive approach to occupational health and safety risks and involves employees in the development and implementation of procedures; controls or eliminate risks to prevent accidents; monitors occupational health and safety system performance; and ensures continual reviews, evaluation, and improvement of the system.

OHSAS 18001 program is compatible with the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System (EMS) standard and ISM.
