Management-system standard gets lukewarm support

Article Abstract:

Members of the international standards community will debate on the need for an international occupational health and safety management-system (OHSMS) standard. This standard is presumed to be similar to the two existing management system standards, ISO 9000 and ISO 14000. However, about 86% of participants in a workshop in Rosemont, IL, indicated their opposition to an OHSMS standard. Many participants also wanted US involvement if ever the standard was to be developed.
