SCA Recycling UK achieved BS OHSAS 18001:2007
OHSAS 18001 is the internationally recognised assessment specification for occupational health & safety management systems.
The implementation of an occupational health & safety management system within SCA Recycling UK has provided with a framework that will allow the organisation to consistently identify and control our health & safety risks, reduce the potential for accidents, aid legislative compliance and improve overall performance.
The successful certification of all 8 operating units as well as the Recycling head office in Aylesford (UK) was the culmination of 12 months of hard work across the company and has provided with a management system which will enable to continually improve our health & safety performance.
"I would like to extend my personal appreciation to Paul Wilson and all of the team that supported him in guiding and managing us through this task, congratulations to you all. This is an important step to ensure that we all make Health and Safety a part of what we do on a daily basis, not something special that we do from time to time"
- Ken Stevens, Managing Director SCA Recycling UK.
