Part A: Report

In the past, individuals working in the workplace, or a factory, or any other on-site facility were exposed to environmental hazards. With the advent of technology, organisations (schools) have realised the importance of providing a safe workplace setting to their employees. On the federal level, the governments have enticed the organisations (schools) to enforce and comply with the prescribed standards so that employees are able to work in safe environments without fear of hazards or any health-related mishaps. Two of most important standards, which are being commonly used in organisations (schools), are ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 Standards. In this paper, implementation of an integrated health and risk management procedure is presented. This procedure is meant to streamline the existing practices with regards to the compliance of two standards mentioned above.
