IMPLEMENTATION OF ISO 45001 STANDARD REQUIREMENTS IN A STONECUTTING COMPANY
Abstract
The paper investigates some processes of application of the specific requirements of the ISO 45001 standard in the context of a stone-cutting company. The focus is on the analysis of the steps that the company should take in order to harmonize its operations with the standards of safety and health at work prescribed by this standard. It also includes a risk assessment including a 3x3 matrix method. The obtained results showed potential places with a high risk for work, such as: the risk of falling large heavy plates, impact of forklifts and injuries during working on machines.
