 1. What Is EHS?

E——Environment ISO14001 EMS

H——Health OHSAS18001
OHSMS
S——Safety
The EHS management system is the integration of the following two
management systems:
1. Environmental Management System (EMS): The international standard and
specification of the existing EMS is the ISO14001: 2004.
2. Occupational Health & Safety Management System (OHSMS): The universal
reference standard of the existing OHSMS is Occupational Health and Safety
Assessment Series (OHSAS) 18001: 2007. The OHSAS is not the international
standard currently.
