Where would I be able to find the OSHAS 18001 safety standard? This was recently added to my agenda to attain cerrtification to this standard at all 4 of our facilities by our new President. Any other suggestion would be appreciated. My company is ISO/TS 16949:2002 and ISO 14001:2004 certified so I am hoping we can merge these systems with OSHAS as much as possible. Thanks.:thanx:

You can merge them very easy and you can obtain a copy here...http://orders.ceem.com/showitemlist.asp?category=69

I would recommend that you get 18001, 18002 and BS 8800:2004 (they kinda work like 9000, 9001 & 9004)

You can also get a copy of all 3 as part of your student materials if you take a course from BSI

To let you know, I am employed by BSI and am the principle OHS/EMS Instructor in N. America for them. There are other providers of written materials and training so don't feel obligated to buy from or use our services because of my involvement here. My Cove relationship has nothing to do with my employment.

Good luck:bigwave:

Sean, please be aware that OHSAS 18001 is undergoing a revision at the present time. It is possible that a new revision of OHSAS 18001 might be released before the end of the year.

do you have any particular info about the changes, i mean the date etc

So is the current version still 1999?

Yes. It is.

Thanks, I thought so, but somewhere in the back of my brain, I was coming up with a 2003 date. But if it being visited/revised now, that would not make a lot of sense. So, I think I'm squared away now.

So, I think I'm squared away now.There is an amendment to OHSAS 18001:1999. It was issued in 2002. I am posting it here because it is not copyrighted.

This might be what is in the "back of your brain"...:rolleyes:

Been included in our stuff for quite a bit, including the training courses.

It is good info for others though.
