Cardiff Business Centre successfully gains ISO 45001
We are pleased to announce that after an external audit by the British Assessment Bureau, our Cardiff Business Centre has successfully achieved the ISO 45001 certification, the international standard for Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) management systems.
What is ISO 45001 certification?
ISO 45001 helps organisations improve workplace safety and minimise employee injuries. It provides a framework for building an effective Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OH&S Management System) to identify and mitigate risks and monitor workplace activities.
We proactively prevent workplace ill-health and injury by implementing ISO 45001 and integrating employee wellbeing and wellness activities.
ISO certification and bidding for contracts
ISO certifications are often a requirement or a significant advantage when bidding for contracts. By meeting tender requirements, ISO certifications show potential new customers that we meet the necessary compliance standards.
ISO standards focus on continuous improvement, efficiency, and customer satisfaction, which can positively impact our overall performance and competitiveness.
In response to gaining our ISO 45001 certification, Andy Norris, Head of Corporate Social Responsibility, said:
“Thanks to the entire team for their hard work, which has achieved this certification.
Thanks to Ruth Smith, Tower Director for Middle Office and Automation Services, Nick Milford, Delivery Manager, and all of our colleagues at Cardiff. They were closely supported by Glynis Hill and Sharon Ahronson, our Health and Safety experts in the CSR team.
Having already been certified at our Head office in Cheapside, we will move on to our Business Centres in Bromley and Barrow before the end of the year.”
In addition to ISO45001, the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) team is also leading on the work towards ISO14001, Environmental Management Systems (EMS) certification, before the end of 2025.
