As you may or may not know, ISO45001:2018 is the new global standard for occupational health and safety, issued to protect employees and visitors from work-related accidents and diseases. The ISO45001 certification was developed to mitigate any factors that may cause employees and businesses irreparable harm. By having implemented the most current occupational health and safety standard, Tower is recognised as an elite category of business, and internationally recognised.
Every day, thousands of lives are lost due to work accidents or fatal diseases linked to work activities. These are serious accidents or fatalities that could and should have been prevented and must be in the future. ISO45001 aims to help Tower do just that. In addition, it is a level of excellence that is acknowledged worldwide and sets us apart from our competitors. It creates an organisation built around best practice. This is then mirrored across the business and sets a standard for managing risks. With Tower having a strong, consistent health & safety management system, means that the organisation is more efficient across the board. ISO45001:2018 assists Tower in demonstrating compliance with health and safety law and in some respects, it goes beyond what the law requires.
