E20: SMS certification and its impacts on safety performance
from Safe As Podcast Hosted by Ben Hutchinson
We chase certifications, implement systems, but what impact are we really having on operational performance? Is achieving certification, like ISO 18001 or 45001, really about improving the governance, assurance, or performance of systems, or is it more about window dressing and legitimacy, being seen to be doing the right thing? Today's pod covers: Dyreborg, J., Thorsen, S. V., Madsen, C. U., & Hasle, P. (2024). Effectiveness of OHSAS 18001 in reducing accidents at work. A follow-up study of 13,102 workplaces.
