Copart secures global safety standard
Copart UK has been accredited with the ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management Standard.
The ISO 45001 standard recognises organisations which consistently identify and control the management of health and safety risks, with an emphasis on leadership and objectives measurement, risk management, communication and awareness.
After a three-day assessment, which was done remotely due to the government’s current coronavirus social distancing guidelines, the accreditation was awarded with no further actions required.
David Lole, health and safety manager, said: “We’ve always maintained robust health and safety procedures at Copart but it’s great to have this externally verified with a formally recognised corporate accreditation. ISO 45001 takes a proactive approach to health and safety with a focus on minimising and preventing risk, which sits perfectly alongside Copart’s well-established commitment to continuous improvement and operational excellence.”
