A good start will be to carry out an internal audit on all areas that will need to be part of an OHSAS audit by identifying hazards and carrying out risk assessments. JAS Certification has PASCB Accreditation so before you start contact us to find out more. You will need support from the entire management team to implement processes across all areas of the organisation.
Some things you will need to consider::
- Planning and establishing a framework

- Processes for hazard identification and risk assessments
- Reporting and monitoring

During the audit you will be assessed on:
