OHSAS 18001
Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series

HR Homepage

Brookhaven National Laboratory is dedicated to providing a healthy and safe work environment for employees, contractors and visitors. To help achieve this goal, the OHSAS 18001 (Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series) specifications have been used to develop a comprehensive Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) management system, a vital part of an Integrated Safety Management (ISM) program. BNL is committed to achieve OHSAS registration for all operations as a primary mechanism to eliminate or minimize OSH risks in BNL activities. BNL’s commitment is to implement, maintain and continually improve an OSH management system that:

  • Clearly states occupational health and safety policies, programs and objectives appropriate for BNL operations,
  • Identifies occupational health and safety risks and legal requirements,
  • Takes a proactive approach to occupational health and safety risks and involves employees in the   development and implementation of procedures,
  • Controls or eliminate risks to prevent accidents, 
  • Monitors occupational health and safety system performance, and
  • Ensures continual reviews, evaluation, and improvement of the system.
