Tata Sponge has always believed in consistently
raising its bar on all spheres of workplace
performance, through path breaking initiatives. A
definitive demonstration was presented recently by the
company when it was qualified for the OHSAS 18001
certification. In its continuous pursuit for higher
standards in Occupational Health & Safety (OHS), the
company had initiated implementation activities on
OHSAS only in September 2008, which makes this
accomplishment even more exceptional.
An OHS Management System provides a framework for
managing OHS responsibilities. The framework is
designed to allow companies to become more efficient
and operate in a more integrated manner with the
specific quality & environment needs. Specifically,
OHS management systems specify a process of achieving
continuously improved OHS performance and complying
with legislation.
Mr.S Shankar, Sr.DM (Learning & Training), who
spearheaded the certification programme, attributed
the success to the united efforts of employees, who
were ably led by their respective Heads of the
Departments. The assessors from IRQS, during their
very first assessment of systems & procedures related
to OHSAS 18001, found the same to be of high order and
recommended for certification, alongwith renewal of
ISO 9001 & ISO 14001 certifications.
With this certification, Tata Sponge has also
qualified for the Integrated Management System (IMS)
which is a matter of elation for the entire Tata
Sponge family. Sponge Times congratulates all
individuals who were directly or indirectly involved
in the OHSAS certification. |
