Abstract

In addition to compliance with the law, as well as increased effectiveness and efficiency, a well-designed occupational safety and health (OSH) management system (MS) will easily generate the types of documents and other “tangible evidences” necessary for a strong awards application package, such as the coveted OSHA’s Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) “Star” and “Merit” recognitions, and the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award (MBNQA). I’ll show you how, and why, in two steps.
