It is common for companies to implement a management system approach to environment, health & safety and quality to provide due diligence and assurance to leadership and regulators.

Examples of Management System Standards

  • ISO 14001:2015 – Environmental Management System*
  • ISO 45001:2018 – Occupational Health & Safety Management System*
  • ISO 9001:2018 – Quality Management System*
  • ISO 50001:2018 – Energy Management System*
  • ISO 31000:2018 – Risk Management
  • ISO 22000:2018 – Food Safety Management Systems*
  • ISO 26000:2010 – Social Responsibility

*Certifiable

International Organization of Standards

International Organization of Standards (ISO) is one of the most widely  used standardized framework to implement a management system, but is not the only framework.

  • EMAS – EU Eco-Management and Audit Scheme
  • CSA Z1000:14, Occupational Health &Safety Management (will be proposed for withdrawal by the Technical Committee in 2024)
  • CSA Z45001:19, Occupational health and safety management systems – Requirements for guidance for use (National Standard for Canada used to assist organizations seeking certification under federal, provincial and sector-based certification programs)
  • OHSAS 18001 Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series, published by BSI (replaced by ISO 45001. Migration from OHSAS 18001 to ISO 45001 certification was required by March 2021)

ISO Standards DO NOT tell you HOW to do it, just WHAT is required.

All ISO Management System Standards follow this HLS, which enables more readable integration of systems (EHSQ Management Systems)

ISO provides a High-Level Structure (HLS) to systematically draft prospective management system standards.

Environmental Compliance Obligations:

STP’s signature tool, RegApply, allows our clients to readily determine which environmental citations apply to their organization by answering Yes/No/NA to key applicability questions that automatically generate a RegRegister from STP’s content. This RegRegister provides a solid foundation of applicable environmental compliance obligations driven from Acts, Regulations, and Statutes. The option to include STP’s Audit Statement and Guide Notes within the RegRegister will provide context to the site to further determine how these compliance obligations apply to them.

Each user has the ability to document how the citation applies to the organization within the RegRegister or within STP’s Inbox within Comments.

The RegRegisters are maintained as documented information within STP’s Hubs, can be integrated within your existing EHS Management Information System (MIS) Platform through integration or can be downloaded.

STP’s RegRegisters include live links at the citation level to STP’s full-text library, providing direct access to the compliance obligations on one comprehensive platform.

STP has a documented RegHub API to support STP clients in maintaining management of regulatory changes in both STP RegHub and EHS MIS Platforms. Please contact STP to learn more about our RegHub integrations and the added value our content can bring to your EMS.
