ISA 2000 represents a departure from the usual approach to managing
health and safety. Its starting point is not legislation but good
management practice. The rationale for this is simple - occupational
health and safety legislation is invariably based on good practice, but
not all good practice is enshrined in legislation. Logically, therefore,
using good practice as the starting point should result in a more
comprehensive and effective control system which automatically ensures
compliance with the law - and this is what ISA 2000 provides. It also
provides an extremely useful mechanism for complying with the new OH&S
standard for BSI - OHSAS 1800l.
The system contains a set of initiatives, comprising 233 individual
elements, which cover the entire spectrum of occupational health and
safety. These are laid out in a formal structure that facilitates the
building of the system and auditing it later on. This volume (Volume 1)
contains those elements that should be implemented as part of the health
and safety management system of any company in any industry sector. They
have been selected to provide management controls against the general
hazards encountered in all workplaces, large or small, and as such reflect
minimum compliance with fundamental safety law. Volume 2 contains further
elements that may need to be included for reasons of legal requirement, or
the particular circumstances of the organization such as the industry
sector. The elements are described in detail, with practical advice on how
they can be implemented, together with samples of procedures, forms and
checklists.
ISA 2000 is a practical approach to health and safety, enabling busy
managers to organize effectively their existing efforts and ensuring that
scarce resources are deployed in the most cost-effective manner. Can you
afford to be without it?
Reviews
'... it is a valuable publication that anyone responsible for managing
health and safety could profitably read. For those who use a system, it is
a valuable document, against which to measure the system they use.' Health
and Safety Review, March 2000
'The calibre of the authors shows through in the clear and concise
presentation of the topics within ISA 2000. Any newcomer to the topic
should have no difficulty getting to grips with it … This reviewer has
taken the opportunity to use some of the chapters - such as the ones on
"audit" and "accident management initiatives" - and
found them to be first class.' Safety and Health Practitioner, September
2001
'Pleasingly and practically presented' Occupational Safety and Health,
December 2001
