DECEMBER 2009 - TOTAL HYGIENE EXCELS IN HEALTH & SAFETY
Total Hygiene- the UK’s leading manufacturer and supplier of toileting solutions
for disabled people- is excelling in its health and safety at work record...
The company, which produces the top-selling Clos-o- Mat wash and dry toilet,
and supplies a range of complimentary bathroom aids for the domestic and commercial
environment, has just completed its triennial audit for its OHSAS18001 occupational
health & safety management certification by Lloyds Register Quality Assurance,
the leading supplier of management system certification to international standards
accreditation; Total Hygiene has attained a 100% compliance record in its latest
audit, with no new areas to be addressed.
OHSAS18001 is an effective and robust occupational health and safety (OHS)
management system designed to reduce, remove or control hazards and risks so
to better safeguard the wellbeing of customers, employees and the business.
The success of the audit follows on from the company’s attainment of ISO9001
Quality Standard and ISO14001 Environmental Standard across its sites.
Latest statistics show some 2.5million working days were lost in 2008/9 in
the British manufacturing sector through workplace injury and work related
ill health. Total Hygiene recorded zero days!
Peter Willan, Total Hygiene chair and CEO, commented, “We have a moral and
ethical responsibility, and a social obligation, to undertake such accreditations
as OHSAS18001; it is satisfying to know that the efforts of our team are consistently
exceeding the requirements and thus helping create a safe and healthy working
environment for our staff and customers.”
