Effectively Managing External Procurement and Outsourced Processes
The external procurement of services, products and other goods can have a direct impact on occupational health and safety (OHS). When procuring or placing orders, it is therefore essential to ensure compliance with the OHS management system. Early coordination and communication with contractors play a key role here, particularly when planning actions and assigning responsibilities. Furthermore, ISO 45001 requires organizations to effectively control and monitor outsourced functions and processes. This is the only way to ensure that external services consistently meet the specified health and safety requirements.
