The British Safety Council has signed a partnership agreement with Abu Dhabi’s Environment, Health and Safety Center (OSHAD)
The deal will see both entities share best practice in the management of occupational health and safety, in order to help the emirate raise employer and worker awareness of the social and business benefits of well-managed health and safety.
Established by the Abu Dhabi government in February 2010 to implement occupational health and safety (OHS) policies, plans and programmes through the provision of integrated OHS regulatory frameworks, OSHAD helps ensure excellent standards of health and safety management from the emirate’s businesses and government agencies.
The British Safety Council will share its and its members’ knowledge and expertise of the systems and arrangements that lead to excellent health and safety performance. It will also help OSHAD to raise awareness of the benefits of management of health and safety risks among Abu Dhabi’s employers.
