When waste and recycling specialist
SITA wanted to build on the
OHSAS 18001 certification its
achieved in 2009 the company
turned to SGS, with whom they
had a long-standing business
relationship.
Following a 5-day course, SGS conducted a full review of all SITA UK's management systems, including policies and procedures, standard forms, and investigation systems.
And these were all found to be broadly compatible with the 18001 standard already.
SITA conducted a gap analysis and organised a working group of Regional Safety Managers, QEMS and Health & Safety Business Control Audit function to conduct the first certification audits in Northumberland and Cornwall.
After a review of the SGS audit report and successful certification to 18001 in these two areas, the regional safety managers made the necessary changes and started the roll out, cascading their knowledge to other regional safety managers.
