ISO 22000 Food Safety Management System

Based on the fundamentals of ISO 9001, ISO 22000 is a relatively new standard created specifically for the food industry

The ISO 22000 Food Safety Management System standard is based on Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) where potential hazards are identified through food safety audits leading to a detailed plan established to ensure elimination or effective control over hazards such as physical, chemical or microbiological contamination.

High standards of food safety and food hygiene are essential in volume production or where food is being supplied to vulnerable persons such as the elderly.

Certification to ISO 20121 sustainable events demonstrates to customers that you take a serious commitment to protecting the environment and ensuring sustainability. The ISO 20121 sustainable events standard applies to all types and sizes of organisation involved in the events industry – from caterers, lighting and sound engineers, security companies, stage builders and venues to independent event organisers and corporate and public sector event teams. RKMS work in partnership with Crowberry Consulting Ltd. to assist venues to meet the criteria for sustainable events. We have assisted several organisations and venues to achieve sustainable event recognition. Other services include:

One of the key benefits of ISO 20121 certification is that it will enable your organisation to differentiate itself in the marketplace and hence improve its chance of winning new business. Major public sector and private sector clients are referencing ISO 20121 in their tender documents as they work to ensure that their own sustainability policies are being implemented. In time, demonstrating compliance to ISO 20121 is likely to become a minimum requirement for anyone wishing to operate in the events industry as event clients, sponsors, local authorities and other key stakeholders choose to work with organisations that have implemented the standard.

ISO 50001 Information Security Management System

The Standard of requirements which deal with the energy impact of your organisation.

With ever increasing legislation such as the Climate Change Levy, Carbon reduction Commitment combined with the pressure for carbon reduction through sustainability and resource efficiency the standard provides a framework to meet these requirements, having your system certified by an independent certification body demonstrates your commitment to customers and stakeholders.

ISO 50001 Energy Management is the standard which ISO 50001 consultants follow which specifies the requirements for an Energy Management System (EnMS) to enable your organisation to develop and implement a policy, identify significant areas of energy consumption and target energy reductions. As well as enhancing energy efficiency, an EnMS can cut costs and reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions providing you with a competitive advantage.

An organisation that implements the standard needs to establish, implement, maintain and improve an energy management system. When the system is mature, energy management becomes integrated into day-to-day responsibilities and activities.

The Energy Management System is structured in a similar manner to the Environmental Management System, ISO 14001. Organisations that have already implemented or plan to implement ISO 14001 can integrate the requirements of both management systems to enable a more efficient implementation process while ensuring that a company benefits from the continued value-add of the management system, in the form of reduced energy costs.

Who is ISO 50001 relevant to?

ISO 50001 is suitable for any organisation – whatever your sector, size or geographical location. It is particularly relevant if you operate in an energy intensive industry or operate from multiple sites using a high amount of energy. RKMS ISO 50001 consultants will get you a certified system operational in the fastest possible time

Being independently certified to ISO 50001 by BSI, an independent third-party, will be the ultimate assurance to your stakeholders that you comply with Energy Management best practice.

ISO 45001 Health & Safety Management Systems

ISO 45001, the Occupational Health and Safety Management systems standard has replaced OHSAS 18001. Issued in March 2018, any organisations certified to OHSAS 18001 will need to transition to the ISO standard by March 2021.

The new standard is designed to increase identification of risk and opportunity for improvement within the host organisation and increase involvement in the management of Occupational Health & Safety at all levels.

The 45001 Standard

Organisations are responsible for the occupational health and safety of their employees and third parties that may be affected by their activities including the protection and promotion of both physical and mental health.

Given this responsibility, the establishment of a system to manage occupational health and safety enables an organisation to provide healthy and safe workplaces, secure continual improvement in its occupational health and safety performance in order to prevent ill health plus work related accidents and injuries

Health & Safety Management System Standard – Objectives

The aim of an ISO 45001 health and safety management system is to manage health and safety risks by providing a process framework. The intent of an occupational health and safety management system is the provision of healthy and safe workplaces and employee ill health or workplace related injuries. As a consequence, it’s vitally important for organisations to minimise risks and eliminate hazards by implementing effective prevention and protection measures.

The end result of deploying these measures throughout an organisation’s occupational health and safety management system in an improvement in its health and safety performance. The implementation of “early” activities to exploit opportunities for improving health and safety performance will result in an organisation’s occupational health and safety management system becoming more efficient and thus effective.

ISO 45001 consultants implementation of an occupational health and safety management system which conforms to ISO 45001 will enable any organisation to better manage health and safety risks and improve its health and safety performance. In addition, an ISO 45001 occupational health and safety management system can also help organisation’s fulfil legal requirements.

ISO 45001 Consultants – Success Factors

When ISO 45001 consultants implement the standard there is a decision covering both strategic and operational aspects of an organisation’s activity. Ultimately, the success of any ISO 45001 implementation will depend on the following from every employee and management function in an organisation:

The effectiveness of an ISO 45001 health and safety management system and its capability to achieve the desired results is dependent on several key issues concerning its implementation and ongoing maintenance.

Attainment of the ISO 45001 standard does not guarantee to provide healthy and safe workplaces or the prevention of ill health, accidents and injuries to employees. This can only be achieved by:

Senior management’s creation and promotion of a culture that underpins the intended outcomes of the health and safety
Leadership, accountability & commitment
Consultation with and participation of workers all employees
Good communication throughout all levels in the organisation
Allocation of adequate resources to maintain the health and safety system
Effective procedures for the identification of hazards, managing health and safety risks as well as exploiting opportunities to further improve health and safety in the organisation
Continuous evaluation of performance and system monitoring to improve health and safety
Fully integrate the ISO 45001 system throughout the organisation’s processes
Complying with all relevant legal requirements
