We're proud to announce that McBains has successfully achieved accreditation to ISO 45001:2018, the international standard for occupational health and safety management systems (OH&S) - complementing our existing accreditations to ISO 9001 (quality) and ISO 14001 (environmental) that already make up part of our integrated management system (IMS).
The accreditation, awarded by NQA, underscores McBains’ unwavering commitment to providing a safe, healthy and supportive workplace for its employees, clients and partners.
“Achieving ISO 45001 certification reflects the dedication of our entire team to building a culture where safety is not just a priority but a core value,” said Managing Director Clive Docwra. “This accreditation demonstrates to our people, clients and stakeholders that we take their wellbeing seriously.”
ISO 45001 sets out globally-recognised best practices for occupational health and safety, helping organisations to proactively improve employee safety, reduce workplace risks and create better, safer working conditions.
Health & Safety Project Director, John Stapleton added: “This certification is the result of rigorous planning, training and collaboration across all areas of our business. By embedding ISO 45001 into our operations, we are ensuring that safety is at the heart of everything we do, every day.”
McBains has long been committed to continuous improvement and excellence in workplace standards. The new certification builds on its existing ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 19650 accreditations, reinforcing its position as a responsible and forward-thinking organisation.
