Health and safety certification
OHSAS 18001 specifies the requirements for an occupational health and safety (OHS) management system so that an organisation can control its occupational health and safety risks and improve its performance in this area.
The certificate of the Occupational Health and Safety Management System in accordance with OHSAS enables Canaragua to:
Reduce the occupational accident rate and increase productivity, by identifying, assessing, and controlling the risks associated with each job, and avoiding causes of accidents and illness at work. Increase perceptions of a safer environment for workers. This leads to a reduction in illnesses, leave or absenteeism, an increase in productivity, a progressive reduction in the accident rate, and a reduction in sanctions and unnecessary expenses.
Comply with occupational health and safety legislation and integrate this into the organisation's processes. This leads to a reduction in costs and administrative sanctions derived from non-compliance, as well as improvements in the internal management of the organisation, and in the communication between company and employee, company and government bodies, and company and stakeholders.
Promote a culture of prevention through the incorporation of occupational health and safety measures into the company's general system (required by law) and the commitment of all employees to continuous improvements in occupational health and safety.
Due to the above, OHSAS 18001 certification from AENOR is the perfect tool to establish the right policy of occupational health and safety at Canaragua.
Canaragua's Occupational Health and Safety Management System is certified based on the OHSAS 18001 standard.
