Subsea technology company Sonardyne International Ltd., has announced that its UK sites in Yateley, Aberdeen and Plymouth have been awarded OHSAS 18001 Safety Management System Standard accreditation after successful audits of all three sites. The news follows similar recent announcements from Sonardyne’s overseas subsidiary companies; Sonardyne Brasil Ltda., Sonardyne Asia Pte. Ltd. and Sonardyne Inc., each of whom have earned OHSAS 18001 certification. This latest achievement, demonstrates Sonardyne’s commitment to health and safety in the workplace on a global scale.


The Occupation Health and Safety Assessment Specification (OHSAS) sets out the minimum requirements for occupational health and safety management for best practise in the workplace. It is internationally accepted as the recognised standard of assessing and auditing occupational health and safety management systems. Developed by leading trade and international standards bodies, OHSAS 18001 provides a framework for organisations to instigate proper and effective management of health and safety in the workplace.
