Clark Contracts Secures ISO Health And Safety Standard

Construction News Image
Clark Contracts has secured a Health and Safety standard from the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO).

The company was awarded the ISO 45001:2018 Occupational Health and Safety System (OHS) standard following a two-stage audit carried out by UKAS accredited certification body Exova BM TRADA.

ISO 45001:2018 is the world's first international standard dealing with health and safety at work. It replaced the previous Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series (OHSAS) last March.
