Screenworks awarded three ISO certifications
creenworks has been awarded three ISO certifications; ISO9001, ISO14001 and ISO45001.
The first sees Screenworks being reaccredited the ISO9001 certification, which is an internationally recognised Quality Management System (QMS). A set of standards that helps organisations ensure they meet customer and other stakeholder needs within statutory and regulatory requirements related to a product or service.
The second is the reaccreditation of the ISO14001 award – standards related to environmental management that exist to help organisations minimise how their operations negatively affect the environment and comply with laws, regulations, and other environmentally oriented requirements. The company has also been awarded the new 45001
certification – an international ISO standard for management systems of occupational health and safety (OH&S). The aim of ISO45001 is the reduction of occupational injuries and diseases, including promoting and protecting physical and mental health. Alan Porter, operations director at Screenworks, said: “Our ISO accreditations demonstrate our commitment to operating professionally and safely, as well as how we manage our impact on the environment, along with strong organisational skills that are well documented.
“It was certainly extremely challenging submitting the paperwork and conducting the audits online, due to the current climate. But we put forward a complete and thorough representation, and we are delighted to have achieved these accreditations – they are a real testament to the work of everyone across the business.”
