INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS CERTIFICATION
The need to achieve and demonstrate good quality, health & safety and environmental (QHSE) performance is greater than ever. Consumer demands, regulatory pressure and macro challenges such as climate change are placing increased emphasis on everything from labour practices and environmental management, to safety standards and supply chain governance.
Implementation of QHSE management system standards is an important first step to managing risk. Certification to international ISO quality management standards provides organisations with a framework to drive continuous improvement.
WHAT IS ISO INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT SYSTEM CERTIFICATION?
For the most effective results, businesses will take a holistic approach and Bureau Veritas offers integrated management system certification to ISO 9001 Quality Management System, ISO 45001 Occupational Health & Safety Management System and ISO 14001 Environmental Management System.
Integration of quality management system standards provides enhanced visibility, enables better tracking of performance and reduces the cost and impact of audits.
