In Australia we have a Standard AS/NZS 4801:2001 Occupational health and safety management systems. This is a bit like the ISO 9000 quality management system, where you have internal & external audits, and highly controlled documentation etc. It may not be exactly what you are looking for, but it means your compliant departments get a nice certificate with 5 ticks on it to hang on the wall. I know the Brits have the same sort of thing, and I'd be very surprised if the US standards people don't have something similar.

Decker Sent: Friday, 19 December 2008 4:45 AM To: Paul Dover Subject: [DCHAS-L] Safety recognition programs As if I didn't already have enough to do....... Do any of you at academic institutions have a safety recognition program in place? Could you give me a brief description of how the program works and if you think it's worthwhile? I am most interested in academic institions but if you have a program in industry that you're particularly proud of, send it along. Thanks! And thanks to everyone who responded to my lab safety program effectiveness query. Fascinating stuff!
