This episode shines a spotlight on the standard ISO 45001.

ISO 45001 is designed to prevent work-related injury and ill-health and to provide safe and healthy workplaces. As an international standard, it crosses geographic, political, economic, commercial and social boundaries, setting a single benchmark for the management of occupational health and safety.

In the episode we hear from Martin Cottam, Group Technical Assurance and Quality Director at Lloyd’s Register and Sally Swingewood, Lead Standards Development Manager at BSI about ISO 45001 – why it was developed, why it matters and what’s next for occupational health and safety management standards.

Episode 2.

 

Universities make a significant contribution to BSI and to standardization. We use leading university expertise to help inform and shape our standards development programmes, from sustainable development and digital manufacturing to connected and autonomous vehicles. Through a range of activities, resources and materials, we work with universities to help raise student awareness of the benefits of standards to society and the economy, and to encourage and increase participation in standards-making. And academics are part of our standards-makers community, either as individual experts or representing HE institutions.

In this episode we hear from leading academic and standards-maker, Dr Irina Brass, Associate Professor at UCL’s Department of Science, Technology, Engineering and Public Policy (STEaPP) about her 'standards journey' and the reasons why she’s such a passionate advocate for standards education and research.

The BSI EDUCATION PODCAST is hosted by Matthew Chiles - Educational Development Manager at BSI, and Alan Sellers - Senior Compliance Manager at Dyson and Chair of BSI’s Young Professionals Advisory Panel.
