Last month, Bureau Veritas Philippines took a significant step in enhancing workplace safety by conducting an ISO 45001:2018 Internal Audit training for SL Harbor Bulk Terminal Corporation, a subsidiary of San Miguel Shipping and Lighterage Corporation. This two-day course was not just a training session; it was a voyage into the world of safety standards and practices.
ISO 45001:2018 sets the foundation for an Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS). It's like a lighthouse guiding organizations to safer shores. During the training, participants delved deep into the standard's requirements, gaining a comprehensive understanding of how to maintain and improve workplace safety. The course was designed to equip them with the necessary skills to plan, organize, and implement an effective OHSMS.
The training was not just about lectures and notes; it was an interactive journey. Participants engaged in various activities that simulated real-life scenarios. This hands-on approach helped them grasp the intricacies of conducting an internal audit based on ISO 19011. Imagine role-playing as auditors and auditees, where each participant could put theory into practice.
Moreover, the training emphasized the importance of continuous improvement and risk management. By the end of the course, participants were not only familiar with the standard but were also empowered to actively contribute to their organization’s safety culture. The skills acquired were not just for ticking boxes but for creating a safer and more efficient workplace.
One of the most significant takeaways from the training was understanding the main practices of an effective internal audit. Participants learned how to identify potential hazards, assess risks, and implement control measures. These skills are crucial for maintaining compliance with ISO 45001:2018 and ensuring the well-being of employees.
The course also highlighted the importance of leadership and worker participation. An effective OHSMS requires commitment from all levels of the organization. Participants were encouraged to foster open communication and involve employees in safety initiatives. This collaborative approach not only enhances compliance but also boosts morale and productivity.
