ISO gives thumbs up to

occupational health and

safety work

ISO has just approved the creation of a

new project committee to develop an

International Standard for occupational

health and safety (OH&S).

According to ILO statistics, 6 300 people

die every day as a result of occupational

accidents or work-related diseases -

more than 2.3 million deaths per year.

317 million accidents occur on the job

annually; many of these resulting in

extended absences from work. Many

such accidents can be prevented, and

the future ISO standard will provide, for

the first time, an international framework

for OH&S best practice and, in so doing,

reduce work-related accidents, injuries

and diseases worldwide.

How GCAS can help

Environmentally conscious construction –

previously a niche market interest –has

become a dominant societal topic and an

important market trend in the building

sector. Every category of

construction product is being affected by

this trend.

This same environmental consciousness

is leading many municipalities and

federal, state and provincial agencies to

adopt a green building framework, which

includes using incentives such as tax

deductions or expedited permitting.

LEED’s high profile is resulting in an

increased adoption of LEED specific

legislation as government agencies look

for a mechanism to encourage green

building. It is likely that green building

legislation of various sorts will continue to

grow.
