For Balda Medical corporate activity means to assume social and ecological responsibility. Consequently, Balda Medical has installed an integrated management system for labour, health and environmental management compliant with BS OHSAS 18001 as well as DIN EN 14001, which has recently been successfully certified by TÜV Rheinland.
In the field of occupational health and safety, the BS OHSAS 18001 (British Standard Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series) is an internationally recognised standard. The BS OHSAS aims to make workplaces safe and ergonomic, and promote health and motivation of employees.
The international environmental management standard DIN EN 14001 supports the careful use of raw materials and energy as well as minimising any kind of unnecessary environmental burden. Both standards require defined operational procedures and responsibilities, which are characterised by preventive action and which result in a continuous and documented improvement process.
