Altran Praxis, the international specialist in embedded and critical systems engineering, is proud to announce that it has become Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series (OHSAS) 18001:2007 certified following an external audit. Altran Praxis has always been committed to rigorous health and safety measures and has now been issued with a Certificate of Compliance.
OHSAS 18001 is an internationally recognised assessment for health and safety management systems. The certification assesses occupational health and safety management, emergency preparedness and response, awareness, competence and on-going training and improvement.
"Altran Praxis is dedicated to workplace safety, and this certification demonstrates our commitment to reducing workplace accidents and to providing a safe workplace as well as staying in compliance with legislation" said Nigel Chapman, Health & Safety Director at Altran Praxis. "Working with critical systems, our customers entrust us with engineering projects with demanding safety, security or innovation requirements, and it is important that our customers know that they are working with a partner that takes occupational health and safety seriously."
The audit took place in March 2011 at Altran Praxis headquarters in Bath, UK by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents.
