Last June, SIMAL achieved ISO 45001 certification for its occupational health and safety management system, expanding the scope of certification within IQE Grupo; IQE, the parent company, already obtained this certification in 2020 after successfully completing the transition from the OHSAS 18001 standard to which it was already certified since 2008.
ISO 45001 is an international standard that helps organizations manage occupational health and safety risks. It focuses on hazard identification, risk assessment and operational controls and improving safety in the design, production and operation stages, reducing incidents and ensuring compliance with regulations. This new standard offers an updated and structured approach to managing occupational risks.
Achieving this certification demonstrates the IQE Group’s commitment to the occupational health and safety of its workers in line with its responsible development strategy.
