Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS)

An Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS) is a structured framework that organizations use to manage health and safety risks at work. It helps to create a safe working environment by identifying hazards, assessing risks, and implementing controls to prevent accidents and illnesses. The system promotes continuous improvement, facilitating employee training, monitoring compliance, and fostering a safety culture. By following an OHSMS, organizations aim to protect their workforce, ensure legal compliance, and enhance productivity while minimizing workplace incidents and injuries.
