<snip>You may also refer 5.2.2 (needs and expectations) and 5.2.3 (customer focus) of ISO 9004:2009 (Guidelines for performance improvements).
Actually, the title of this standard is: "ISO 9004:2009 Managing for the sustained success of an organization -- A quality management approach."

Thanks Stijloor. You are correct. Infact the previous version was titled as 'guidelines for performance improvement'.

My question is little different.

Does a normal service organization which has only typical paper work activities have to have calibrated fire extinguisher to meet the requirements of 6.3or 6.4? or any other safety related requirements

thanks.

I'm going to go into Sidney mode.

ISO 9001 says Nothing about safety. ISO 9001 Auditors are not entitled to assess against safety requirements. The bit about work environment includes "needed to achieve conformity to product
requirements." So that is the only obligation on an organisation going for certification to 9k2k.

However, having got the requirements out of the way, as has already been mentioned it is good practice to integrate your systems for safety, health, environment, quality, etc., etc. So by all means include safe systems of work in your QMS work instructions / procedures.

If you want a model for a H & S management system you could do far worse than look at OHSAS 18001.
In order to meet the intent of ISO9001 clause 6.3 and 6.4, the organization must have an HSSE program. THe ISO also requires management commitment to statutory and regulatory requirements- if that is not workplace safety, I do not know how else to comply. Thanks.

I won't repeat my earlier post and will trust you to reread it. If you can point out to me anything in either clause of 9001 that refers to HSSE (or OSHA, H & S, employee protection or anything else that relates to occupational health & safety) I'll be interested. :nope:

If you need any standards that relate to H & S you can use OHSAS 18001 or any number of other standards - or your local legal requirements.
