ISO 45001 accreditation is one of the most recognised workplace health and safety standards in manufacturing and construction. It demonstrates that a business has robust systems in place to manage risk, protect its people and operate safely.
Last year, Toilet Partition Industries (TPI) achieved ISO 45001:2018 certification covering the design, sourcing, manufacture and installation of commercial toilet and shower partitions and wet-area joinery services.
Recently, we successfully completed our first annual surveillance audit, confirming that our management system continues to meet the requirements of the ISO 45001 standard.
The audit was managed by Vanessa and Alex, who did a fantastic job preparing the business and working with the auditors throughout the process. As well as confirming that our systems continue to meet the standard, the audit also provided practical feedback that will help us strengthen the way we work.
Confidence at Every Stage
Every partition we manufacture starts in our factory at Condell Park long before it arrives on a construction site.
Our ISO 45001 accreditation covers the way we design, source, manufacture and install our products. That means the same disciplined approach to workplace health and safety applies throughout our business – from the factory floor through to installation on site.
For our clients, that’s important.
Whether we’re supplying partitions for a school, hospital, commercial office building or a major infrastructure project such as the new Western Sydney International Airport, they need to know they’re working with a manufacturer that takes workplace health and safety seriously.
Our ISO 45001 accreditation helps give them that confidence.
It demonstrates that we have independently audited systems in place to:
- identify and manage workplace health and safety risks
- protect our employees, contractors and visitors
- maintain safe and consistent processes throughout manufacturing and installation
- comply with workplace health and safety requirements
- regularly review our systems to ensure they remain effective.
For builders, project managers and principal contractors, it provides confidence that we’re a supplier with robust systems that have been independently assessed against an internationally recognised standard. For architects and specifiers, it’s another indication they’re selecting a manufacturer committed to quality and professionalism.
The result is confidence throughout the project. Confidence that products are manufactured safely. Confidence that our people arrive on site with the right systems behind them. Confidence that we’re committed to doing things properly from start to finish.
Building on Strong Foundations
Successfully completing our first annual surveillance audit is an important milestone, but it’s only one part of maintaining the high standards we set ourselves. The audit confirmed that our systems are working as intended while also identifying practical ways we can make them even stronger.
Every day, our team works with the understanding that workplace health and safety isn’t just about meeting a standard. It’s about looking after our people, supporting our clients and delivering quality work they can rely on.
For us, “Install Confidence” is simple. It means doing the job properly. ISO 45001 accreditation gives our clients independent assurance that the systems behind our business meet the same standard.
