ISO Ireland

International Standards make things work! Providing world-class specifications for products, services and systems, to ensure quality, safety and efficiency. They are instrumental in facilitating international trade.

Developing this unique event for over 3 years, ISO Ireland 2018 will look at a combination of four symbiotic ISO standards, including; 9001, 14001, 45001 & 50001. This multi-stream event will encompass over 36 speakers across 8 streams and gather over 750 business professionals considering the implementation/migration to these standards: Quality, Environmental, OHS and Energy.

ISO 9001 is the international standard that specifies requirements for a quality management system (QMS). Organizations use the standard to demonstrate the ability to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements. It is the most popular standard in the ISO 9000 series and the only standard in the series to which organizations can certify.

ISO 14001 is the international standard that specifies requirements for an effective environmental management system (EMS). It provides a framework that an organization can follow, rather than establishing environmental performance requirements.

Part of the ISO 14000 family of standards on environmental management, ISO 14001 is a voluntary standard that organizations can certify to. Integrating it with other management systems standards, most commonly ISO 9001, can further assist in accomplishing organizational goals.

ISO 45001 is a new international standard for occupational health and safety (OH&S), providing a framework for managing the prevention of death, work-related injury and ill health, with the intended outcome of improving and providing a safe and healthy workplace for workers and persons under an organization’s control.

The ISO 50001 energy management standard is a proven framework for industrial facilities, commercial facilities, or entire organizations to manage energy—including all aspects of energy procurement and use. An energy management system establishes the structure and discipline to implement technical and management strategies that significantly cut energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions—and sustain those savings over time. Savings can come from no- to low-cost operational improvements.

At ISO Ireland 2018 we will bring together over 750 senior level management from Irish industry and business who are at various stages of implementing one or a number of these standards. Sectors include; Food processing, Pharmaceutical, MedTech, Financial, ICT, Retail, Services, Government, Local Authorities, etc.
