An Environment,
Health and Safety(EH&S) management system is a process which enables a
company to manage, measure and improve upon EH&S issues.
Key components include: an environmental,
health and safety policy; identification of the issues; targets and objectives;
monitoring and auditing; performance evaluation; labeling; life cycle
assessments; regulatory compliance; information management.
The key to success of any EH&S management
system is effective integration. It is an essential element for organizations
that want to eliminate redundancies, improve cost efficiencies, achieve
superior performance and reduce risk.
Integration does not only involve environmental, health and safety issues,
but also issues of quality management, facility operation, emergency response,
accounting and human resources to list a few.
The ELEMENTS Network’s philosophy on designing and implementing an
EH&S management system is that it must be; a) cost
effective; b) flexible;
c) maintainable; d) user
friendly; e) compatible;
f) best practice; g)
meet industry and government standards (ISO 14000).
The ELEMENTS Network provides professionals who have been involved with
the design, implementation and integration of EH&S management systems
since 1985.
From our experience, a sound EH&S management system can be
low cost without sacrificing any financial benefits or increasing
company exposure to risk. Maintaining adherence to government regulations
and company policy/standards can be accomplished efficiently and cost
effectively.
