Documenting Management Systems

To become certified to management system standards such as ISO 9001, ISO14001 or OHSAS 18001, it is essential to develop a comprehensive and effective documentation system. Organisations that already have a certified management system (e.g. ISO 9001) may wish to expand this to meet the requirements of additional standards (e.g. ISO 14001).

This one-day course will be of interest to companies who are at an early stage of developing a management system (quality, environmental and/or health & safety) and who wish to identify the documentation requirements and develop an action plan to get started. This course aims to provide learners with an understanding of the documentation requirements of these standards and how these can apply to their organisation.

Participants achieve the following learning outcomes from the programme;

• Understand and determine the documentation requirements of ISO 9001
• Understand and determine the documentation requirements of ISO 14001
• Understand and determine the documentation requirements of OHSAS 18001
• Provide delegates with an understanding of the document control requirements of international management system standards
• Provide delegates with ideas and examples of draft procedures
• Give delegates the knowledge they need to prepare a manual
• Provide delegates with an understanding of change control
